The southern part of the city has a chic family-oriented sort of charm to it. Here, small locally owned shops run rampant, neighbors often know each other by name, and the monthly socials are an event not to be missed. In the South, children can often be seen safely playing in the park or on sidewalks and in the weekends, families often take to the beach to enjoy the warm waters surrounding the city.

The Ascension Center of Equitation is the epicenter of the Dark Hunter Cavalry Unit. Originally a high-class facility for show-jumping, Ascension now caters entirely to the Cavalry Unit. Here the Dark Hunters learn how to ride and fight upon the backs of horses - many of which are Were's themselves.

Hyde Place takes up a large part of the Southern side of the city and includes a large playground, several fountains, and a small garden. The park is open from five in the morning till midnight though many shady characters may visit this place while it's technically "closed". The park has also been a venue for several concerts and hosts many holiday-related events. Under a full moon, witches are often seen here for the sacred ground beneath the iconic Weeping Beech.
The Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium (PDZA) is an award-winning combined zoo and aquarium located within the Southern Part of Sacrosanct. Situated on 92 acres in Sacrosanct's Hyde Park, the zoo and aquarium are home to over 9,000 specimens representing 367 animal species. Point Defiance is also widely known for its conversation efforts regarding the breed and release program of Red Wolves.
Beyond the city limits and over the bridge lies the deep, dark, and almost impenetrable forest. Often seen as a way to guard this magical city against the world that surrounds it, many are entirely ignorant of the evil that may creep between those tree trunks. Many were-creatures use the forest for the transformations of their newest members and some even take to hunting here. It isn't particularly peculiar for people to go missing within this forest but once you get through, the rest of the world awaits.
The University of Sacrosanct offers some of the top programs in the nation with its outstanding campus and specialized faculty. The University places a high focus both upon educating future generations but also on research to help revolutionize the world. The University welcomes the talent of students across the world to enroll and unlock their unlimited potential. With applications from across the nation, classes fill up quickly.

Nadya Tetradore
Nadya remained poised by her catch, ears pricked towards the source of noise she had heard. What had started off as simple rhythmic thuds turned into an awful racket crashing of leaves and earth. One ear flicked back as she tilted her head in curiosity. If they had meant to make a sneak attack on her then they were doing a terrible job of it. Still she waited, poised and ready with her powers at the very edge ever in control of them after so many months with only time on her hands to practice them. Her patience was rewarded when a reply brushed against her mind, familiar and foreign all at the same time. The panther's head tilted in the opposite direction now trying to place it before the wolf's head poked through the brush. Oh she knew that face, the one with the eyes that reminded her of her brother. The kill at her side was forgotten for now as her full attention was placed upon the familiar figure.
Their meeting had been brief, the wolf having run off before Nadya had been able to take her to the Ark to introduce and possibly join them. Nadya had figured that the thought of being in a feline pack had been unpleasant or perhaps she preferred the lone wolf life as opposed to pack. Everyone had their reasons and Nadya hadn't sought her out to ask why after that. Although their meeting had been brief it hadn't been negative; the green-eyed wolf held no threat at this time for the panther so she easily relaxed her hold on her powers. "Hi..." The young woman was still rather caught off guard by the quizzical sudden appearance of the happy-go-lucky canine. Perhaps the only other happy-go-lucky person Nadya had been around was Sam. There was a time, before her world of motherhood, before coming to Sacrosanct and being plunged into the world that came with chaos she too had been the same. Oh how those days were missed sometimes.
"A lot has happened." Her business was growing and she seemed to be in more emotional chaos lately from everything to her situation with being separated from her children to her pack. But all that Nadya would never express to someone she had hardly met before. That was practically therapy material. All Nadya could give was her simple answer as she rolled a shoulder in a feline equivalent of a shrug. "I'm sorry....what's your name again?" Nadya certainly remembered the wolf but for the life of her couldn't remember the name she had been given. "I remember you, you were alone and I was taking you to see my brother when you took off. Did you find what it was you were looking for?"
