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.

The sleek ebony panther's gaze so followed his spotted companion, his ears wholly attentive to the two women even as he watched the feline he called his friend pounce upon a surely imaginary spot of prey. Though it seemed Raven's inquiries were to go unanswered, it was but his own he demanded any real acknowledgement of. Her softened reassurance that those who had so slighted her, whom had haunted her and surely tormented her were all dead. They were no longer a threat to the pack and, in turn, Tetradore was entirely willing to forget the girl's absence altogether, regardless of the reasons that so drew her away from their small, makeshift family. He was hardly one to inquire further, after all, as his emerald eyes flickered towards those depthless purple ones of the woman across from him, he could see well the horrors of what had occurred written in those bottomless chasms - all the things they all never spoke of and cared entirely to simply forget. His attention, however, was wholly fleeting, falling back upon his companion as the two women spoke softly of their worries and, in turn, reassurances. Such a conversation was one he hardly wished to get in the way of and yet, like the leopard, the chatter was too of little interest to him.
In fact, it wasn't until the mention of a celebration that Tetradore's ears flickered and his emerald eyes turned back towards the pair of women with a glimpse of utter uncertainty. He supposed that there was reason enough to celebrate, even if that bewildered look upon Regan's features so bore into him. Although he was unsure of what this celebration would consist of, he hardly anticipated it would be nearly as bad as the ebony tiger so seemed to think it would be. After all, it would only be the four of them would it not? Tetradore ignored that nearly endearing pout that crossed the woman's lips as he gave into this notion of celebrating. Rather, his attention fluttered towards Tobias and the boy's own suggestion for their party - eating. Eating was something Tetradore quite liked. Cookies, cupcakes, cake. They could visit that pastry store the two men often stalked downtown, he was sure the woman there would write 'welcome home' on something for them, after all, she seemed as if she was quite fond of the pair. Such thought of frosting and sweetness, however, was quickly chased away instead by the sound of Raven's voice.
A soft puff of air left his nose at the sound of that singular word. Hunting. The taste of blood and raw meat was starkly different from that baked sweetness he'd been momentarily considered. In truth, he hardly enjoyed hunting as he supposed he should have, even if he kept his distaste of it away from the pack at large. It reminded him far too much of those times Risque would utilize him to terrorize, maim, or murder those who dared rise against her. Such a hunt was the only kind he'd ever really experienced for the majority of his adult life. His animal, it would seem, somehow lacked certain feral instincts that his companions so readily took up. Still, the were-panther's head bobbed ever so slightly in acceptance of this, knowing well enough that Tobias would undoubtedly jump at the opportunity. It was, however, Regan, he so saw to please as the man rose to all four's. Such, thought into another being's desires was, in itself, entirely rare for the man to so display. "Regan, what do you think of a hunt? The deer population has been exceedingly plentiful of late."
