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.

it's a shallow little world


There was no excuse - not the darkness, not the exhaustion that made both body and mind feel haggard and drawn - for him not to have noticed that the girl had a sword. Especially after finding the hunter, he should have been particularly attuned to such things.

But it wasn't until she spoke that his attention flicked back to her, his gaze at first dismissive before a gleam of street lamp caught the hilt rising from her back. Kearn managed to keep his eyebrows from rising to his hairline, but internally he was swearing. Thoroughly. Surely even in Sacrosanct, crawling with beasts and monsters, it wasn't common to wear a weapon so brazenly? Perhaps things were changing, and non-humans were growing weary with keeping to the shadows.

On the heels of that thought, he wondered if the bus driver would allow her on. He had the good sense, at least, to keep his own weapon tucked covertly in his pocket.

All this passed through his mind with hardly a tic of his cheek to betray it before he jerked his chin northward, where the bus in question was nothing more than blurred taillights. "You might catch it if you feel like sprinting. Otherwise it's a bit of a wait." Kearn's gaze wandered down her briefly, wondering just what manner of girl she was, and what kind of threat she might pose to him. His arms were still crossed, his posture closed off, but he was feeling sulky and cross enough to engage where he probably shouldn't. He tilted his head toward the weapon she brazenly wore. "You weren't planning on taking it hostage with that, were you? I'll take another route home, if so."
