South

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.

Ascension Center of Equitation

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 Park

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.

Point Defiance Zoo and Aquarium

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.

The Outskirts

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

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.

South


I listen to her description of her ex, wondering if he was basically my definition of my father just in a different role. Controlling and abusive is about right though. I nod as I listen to her. I wonder who taught her to do her makeup or if she basically taught herself. I smile as she turns me away from the mirror, saying she doesn't want me to see until she's done. "I can't wait." I like her compliments about my skin, telling me I don't need makeup because I have nice skin tone. I don't really know what it means but it sounds nice. She tells me that I will sparkle though and that excites me. I try my best not to bounce in the seat in eagerness. I'm glad that she doesn't seem mad about me mentioning ripping the dress. She tells me it won't rip and then says we can just get another one if it does. "Oh, okay." I say for lack of anything else to say. When I ask about her burn, she shrugs it off and says it will be fine. I can only guess she doesn't have a healing power.

I listen as she starts to tell me about her younger years. "I bet it was beautiful there. I've never really traveled much besides to run away from something so I couldn't focus on the scenery." I say sadly. I can sense her sudden tension and figure she must be talking about something more but doesn't want to talk about it so I leave it alone, not wanting to pry. I look up when she says that she didn't have money when she came to Sacro, that she stayed in the woods. I look away because I know that she changed that by joining Frost, somethng I refused to do. I stayed with Raven for a while until she joined a pack and Isolt went to live with her coven and run the business. Everyone joining groups and here I am, the loner who refuses to play nice with others and can't be trusted by anyone really. Where do I belong? I shake my head. "You don't have to do anything for me, Edie. You don't owe me anything." I'm just so used to being on my own. When she offers to let me stay at her house tonight, I scowl.

"I wouldn't want to put you or your boyfriend out. You don't have to do that, Edie." When I reach out for her hand, she looks confused but then I heal the burn and she pulls her hand back with a question. I sigh slowly and nod. "Yeah." When she bites her lips, her eyes suddenly look distant and I wonder what she's thinking. At her next question, I shrug. "I actually don't know. I know the deeper the damage, the more it takes out of me. I've healed arrow wounds and bite and claw marks and bullet wounds. I can't re-attach a leg or anything like that, though." She says that she can't heal herself and I think for a moment. "I guess I haven't really needed to. I heal pretty fast but now that I think about it, I guess I kind of can heal myself, at least faster than normal. I got hurt pretty bad before I came back to Sacrosanct and I fell asleep only to wake up pretty much healed. Maybe I healed myself in my sleep or something." I shrug.
