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.

With one hundred floors and a 125-foot spire, the Starlight Tower rises high above the Sacrosanct skyline. More than just a landmark, the Starlight Tower offers a unique mix of restaurants, shops, and offices spaced throughout the building. Organized into nine verticle zones, each of which features a sky lobby and a light-filled garden atrium which merge the upscale interior with a faux landscaped exterior setting.
I hardly expected the pub to be very busy this late at night. The only people out this late comprises of vampires and werewolves most of the time. Though humans can boast of their night lives, too many in this modern world have jobs to worry about so an early shut in is the best bet to a successful life. Far too often I feel they work away most of their life and don't really have time to enjoy what it has to offer. Good thing I have forever for such things. As the vampire moves to the bar, I find my gaze moving over him politely but with some curiosity. I do remember him from the costume party but I don't believe we talked much if at all. He seems the businessman type, like he enjoys to conquer and then relax in his accomplishments. I can admire ambition, even in an immortal creature. It's always good to have a goal in life. He takes a seat and says he wants a scotch so I nod and pour it, sliding the glass over to him before I move for conversation. "I remember you from the costume party but I don't believe I got your name. I'm Damon." I hold out my hand for a handshake if that's his sort of thing. "You look like a man who enjoys running his own business. What do you do?" I quirk a single brow up in my curiosity as I pour a drink for myself, a bourbon, of course. |
