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.

"You are a complete idiot," were the words that left Tet's mouth that causes an even more wicked grin to stretch across her lips. It takes Vhalla no time at all to braid back her hair and dispose of her daggers on the ground on either side of the were-creature. When she prepares herself to launch at him, she can't help but let a chuckle roll off of her tongue when he insults her yet again. Little did she know he was simply trying to deter the assassin, she simply thought she could best this man in were form or in human form. Grinning again she offers him a slight shrug of her well-toned shoulders, "Call it what you like, I'm certain you're just afraid to fight a woman," she taunts him again, just before she charges him.

She's light and graceful on her feet, her footsteps nearly silent on the snow-covered floor. All humor erased from her face, she instead is focused as her eyes do a quick assessment across his body, searching for weak spots, if he favored a certain leg, she was certain she was quicker than him comparing his bulk against her slight form. Vhalla is completely consumed by her quick assessment as she reaches him, just but inches from him, Tet completely vanishes from her sight. Skidding to a halt, she whirls around to find him a short distance away, too far for a surprise attack.

Pausing, she folds her arms across her chest, brows furrowing, "Are you just going to run? Or do you plan to face me?" she draws out, annoyance coloring her voice. When he finally agrees, Vhalla can't help but let a flash of triumph dance upon her features, unfolding her arms, readying herself for whatever the were had in store for her. What she doesn't expect, is the man in front of her to begin to disrobe. She simply made nothing of it when he removed his jacket, though she found it strange when he took his shirt off. Even the assassin wasn't immune to nice looking men, her eyes traced the contours of his body briefly until she fumbles backwards as he drops his pants, "What the hell are you-," Vhal doesn't have a chance to finishes before he shifts right before her eyes.

The witch had never seen a shift before.

It was, simply to put it, magic and a little disorienting to watch a naked man become a jaguar. What she didn't expect was for the man to shift into something so predatory, it even made her pause. She wasn't going to allow this cat to beat her. Repositioning herself, she plants her feet firmly on the ground, eyeing the black cat across from her, his tail lashing back and forth. It was perhaps the most emotion she had seen from Tet. That annoyance he refused to reveal to her was now clearly written in the lines of his cat form. Quirking up a maniac grin she gestures a hand out towards him, taunting him on.

"Here kitty, kitty," she heckles, gesturing him towards her with her fingers. With her other hand, she easily slips it into her pocket, retrieving a bomb to exploit his senses. She never said she would fight fair. Vhalla is certain the movement is not lost on the jaguar but in that moment, she's quicker, flipping the top off with a finger and hurling it in his direction, the bomb exploding into a cloud of smoke, the scent so strong it even makes her eyes water. She can only imagine what it would do to Tet, perhaps incapacitate him momentarily. Withdrawing a spare cloth from her pocket, she slips it over her face as she charges into the smoke.

Vhalla can just barely see the outline of the cat as she hurls herself at him, deftly dodging his large paws and claws for that matter. From here, she's uncertain what to do, the assassin didn't have much experience in fighting animals, perhaps she should have studied predators more before she took on this... challenge. No matter now, the witch was in too deep now. Just as she reaches the black figure, she makes a split decision to wrap her arms around his neck in a head lock, throwing a leg over his back she simply rides him, a sound of triumph escaping her throat. "What now, kitty?" she laughs in his ear as she hangs onto him tightly.
