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.

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.

All her life she dreamed of belonging somewhere. To find herself not cast aside or be treated as a pariah. Already she could feel the bonds between them strengthen, appreciating this soothing feeling. It was moments like this that made her feel absolutely complete. Being close with her pack, interacting with them in this particular way was satisfying. Already she could feel the pack bond strengthen, finding her soul soothed and relaxed as she was amongst her Alpha and mate. Managing to catch Tetradore was surprising to the lupine. Although she could run and keep her momentum up, she was not as fast as her feline counterparts when it came to short-burst sprints. Raven did not catch the affectionate look her Alpha was given her, the girl far too focused on being careful, nuzzling him. It was the feeling of Tobias pouncing on top of them that causing Raven's to grunt at the extra weight. Her banner continued to sway as the panther laid dead, his paws batting at them, Raven ducking from his paws, while Tobias bit at them. Though such a harmonious and innocent moment would cease the moment the peculiar coated canine caught a familiar scent on the autumn wind.
Grey-trimmed ears began to flick front to back, using her other senses besides her nose to figure out who it was that lurked beyond the park. She could feel Tobias' presence as he pulled himself off of the panther, approaching her and then standing in front of her. She appreciated his need to protect her, feeling his long spotted tail gently curl up around her neck, taking a few steps forward and pressing her dial against his shoulder in a tender manner. While Tetradore climbed the playground declaring the scent belonged to her long lost friend, Raven craned her neck eagerly searching with new vigor to spot her. Hearing Tetradore's deep roar, calling for Regan to come, Raven feels the grip around her neck loosen as Tob's tail slides away, the spotted cat walking in the direction he found Regan. It had been so long that she had seen that ebony tiger. When she slipped away from the Ark Raven had grown sad at the loss of a friend. She understood Regan may want to be alone, so she did not chase her down, but she hoped one day she would return.
Blue-grey eyes widen when she saw the large ebony tiger come forward through the bushes exposing herself to the edges of the playground. Her banner swayed side to side in an eager manner, a very soft whine as she hops in place. Without any orders to stay or go the lupine quickly runs towards the tiger, passing Tobias and tackling into the tiger. Quickly her muzzle nuzzled into the tiger's neck as her pink tongue eagerly licked the side of the tiger's face, multiple times, giving the poor feline a bath. She is elated to have her friend back. She cannot answer whether she is allowed to come home or not, but Raven was sure she already knew what Tetradore's decision would be. Pressing her muzzle deeper into her neck she inhaled her scent, familiarizing herself with it again. Softly her voice slipped into their minds, grateful to see her back.
