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.

i'm not ashamed of my scars, i'm ashamed of the world for not understanding.

Mortified was a complete understatement with how she felt for ignoring her Alpha. As she quickly followed him up the stairs she couldn't believe that she had ignored him when he attempted to get her attention. Whenever she helped Jackal out with the money she was used to be touched to get her attention, be a Were in their human skin or animal, and she silently thanked Fate for giving her the patience of a saint â€" she stroked her Alpha's muzzle gently and did not smack him away. Raven would never forgive herself if she had accidentally smacked her Alpha in the face. She had never before felt herself being forced to change, the pull to change into her wolf form was something she accepted and did not fight against. Puzzled and confused all the same she did not question it as she eagerly greeted him in the natural feline manner. She was absolutely ecstatic to be going on some sort of adventure with her Alpha. She had no idea just what they would be doing, but it didn't really matter whether she knew or not. The fact that she was going with him alone made the event even more special. They had done much as a pack, and she was constantly accustomed to being ignored, especially with Tobias and Nadya demanding more of Tetradore's attention, or when those two bickered amongst one another. Her grey-marked banner swayed side to side in an eager manner as she happily followed after him heading deeper into the Ark.


As they reached the familiar warm space of her Alpha's room, she stood in his doorway, unsure as to why they would be here. She is distracted for a moment as she catches a toy she had not seen before, slowly she approaches it, sniffing the plush toy and catching a whiff of the scent that belonged to one of the children. She had not seen the children that much, barely getting a chance to be near them or interact with them, understanding this was a decision made by their Mother and her distrust of her canine species. With a shake of her head she listens to her Alpha's order, and she nods politely, brushing her shoulder against his own. She had never teleported before and she was rather curious as to how it all worked. Slowly the darkness would begin to wrap around the duo, her mind went hazy as she felt her body moving. As soon as they reached his destination she took a step away from him, feeling her fur tingle at the unfamiliar feeling of being teleported. She would shake herself, as if she was drying herself off after a swim, her voice gently slipping into his head, her opinion on his odd mode of transportation.


"So, that is teleoperation? It feels weird, but it appears quite useful."


His demand that they be quiet causes the lupine to nod in agreement, stilling herself, and then moving forward after him. Unsure where her place was when they were alone she placed herself in her usual spot, sticking behind the panther. After all she was used to Tobias and Nadya walking with their heads near his shoulder, the leopard and jaguar, believing both belonged in the Beta position beside their Alpha. Grey paws gently pressed down on the grass, her eyes looking to the ground, as she looked out for any sticks or debris that would alert their presence. Although she was being silent as they moved, internally, she was bouncing off the wall with excitement and curiosity, just wondering why he would bring her to the woods.
