East

The east side of the city is the very heart of Sacrosanct - it's unique skyline is a clash between modern sky rises and small Victorian-inspired storefronts. In the heart of downtown, the sleek colored glass buildings reign supreme though their old-world roots can be seen in the most peculiar places from the lamp post styled electric street light to the stone sidewalks. The old world architecture slowly returns the further from downtown you travel, however. It's here that magic thrives, it hums in every stone and can be felt in every breath. Often, newcomers to the city may become overwhelmed by such sensations but, eventually, it becomes an ever-present feeling that's hardly noticed.

He seemed to find it amusing that she would ask him if he was Batman. He asked if she really thought he could pull off Bruce Wayne and she smiled and nodded. "You could pull off anyone. I'm sure of it." She raised a brow teasingly. When she asked about him returning the car after tonight, he seemed thoughtful for a minute. Then he said that he hadn't thought about it. He could probably use a car sometimes to get around so maybe he would keep it. In a way, it suited him. Then he said he could give it to his god son to use and she looked back at him, eyes wide in surprise. "You have a god son?" She liked finding out these small truths about him. In a way, she was hungry to know him as much as she could. He helped her into the passenger side before he took up his place in the driver's seat. Then he pulled the car out into traffic and they made their way further into the city. She asked him about his horses then. She could sense that they were important to him and therefore, important to her.

He said that Greece was across the ocean and asked if she'd ever been abroad. She shook her head. "I've only ever been where I could walk on two legs...or four. I've never been on the water or in the sky. It was forbidden to my former pack." She could recall how her father put down the cars and planes as abominations to nature. When she asked how different it was to work with WereHorses, he admitted that they still had the instincts of a horse when he was working with them and so it was easy to forget. She nodded, trying to understand. But it begged the question, would it be the same for her? If someone were to use her as an attack animal, would they forget that she was also a person with hopes, dreams, a personality other than that of a fox? She didn't want to judge Alexander for telling her the truth. He continued, telling her that it was probably why the Calgary was in disarray. He admitted that they should be treated better, but said there was no rules for this sort of thing.

She was quiet, thoughtful. Then he said something that made her eyes widen again in surprise. He said they would hate him for how much he intended to change the world. Who was the they? The Were's? The Hunters? She looked down at her lap for a minute, contemplating. Slowly she reached across to put her hand on his and look at him. "I could never hate you, Alexander." She didn't know if that would mean much to him. If he wasn't talking about her kind then maybe it would just mean that she didn't understand and he would just indulge her. Alexander was still such a mystery to her sometimes. Slowly she let her hand lower and turned her head to look to the road ahead.
