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 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.

She's habitually paradoxical, a parallel perpendicular;



The cute little panda sat on the fringes of that placed blanket over the foliage, her button eyes looking almost expectantly at her with a hint of curiosity. The creature was not a normal little forest creature by any means, that she could tell right away once she laid eyes upon her. There was a deeper intelligence within those hazel eyes that she couldn't quite place and yet she was fully content to have the company whatever she was. It wasn't like Iliana was exactly run of the mill fairy either.

The fairy spoke to her and the little panda bear seemed to smile at her, seemed to understand the meaning behind the words, yes she had conversations with animals on a regular basis. This felt a little different, she wasn't entirely sure of why but it did. It didn't really matter what the little creature was or who.

"Oh Abigail what a pretty name that is. I believe it does make us friends now and friends share food. At least in my books they did." She never thought she would make a friend so easily like this, animals didn't really make very good friends. Only a few of the seemed to come back to her time after time. The others were only interested in the food she offered and that was it. Never did one declare they were friends before! She most definitely didn't mind this. "I don't know what else friends do though, I don't really have too many. Most of the birds don't like me because I can't fly. Not yet anyways.. But I do have a crow friend, he is really nice, you should meet him. He is nice most of the time, he sometimes brings be things." The squirrels, well, their minds were so scattered and more scrambled than a scrambled egg. They forgot to come back to meet her when they had plans. One time she met a very grumpy coyote who threated to bite her if she pet him. He had such an angry scowl upon his face, his teeth didn't frighten her but his bite did. She did make friends with a fox once, but she was awfully suspicious of her. Especially when some of her shiny rocks went missing. She decided Abby wasn't like that, she didn't know why but she had a feeling, those feelings one has in their gut.

However, sitting there now, her silvery eyes resting upon the unique little creature she blurted out a question. The panda looked at her before responding, showing her, that very long fluffy striped tail of hers. The fairy woman giggled in delight. What a unique looking little creature. Oh thank goodness she wasn't a fox. "A panda! I never met a panda before, I thought most of them were big black and white bear looking things. They don't have pretty looking tails like yours." She took the contents from her bag and emptied them all out before the creature. She had sandwiches stuffed with eggs, cut up veggies and already cut up fruits. Some shiny trinkets fell out, a silver bracelet, a gold watch and a diamond ring spilled out as well.

What a chatty little thing she was, and Illiana could not be any more delighted! "Oh! You will like most of what I have then, you can help yourself just make sure you save some for me. But I don't need much." She smiled contemplating her other question. "But to answer your question, no I haven't had lamb before I always thought they were too cute to eat. I don't eat that much meat.. only chickens... and whatever they put in spaghetti. I love spaghetti and meat balls. It looks gross like guts but it tastes so good, I don't know what it is. But if you say lamb is amazing I NEED to try it." That light chiming voice uttered, happily talking about whatever with the little creature. She gathered the shiny knickknacks in one hand and placed them with some of her rocks, she liked to look at them, its why she always travelled with some. Also, she stored and stashed them away all over the place to make sure no one would try taking them. "These are mine, I collect things." She admits, those amiable silvery eyes peer down upon the little panda. She also liked to borrow things from people even if she had a hard time giving it back, most often times, depending on the item, she would forget to. "I find them in all sorts of places, you can't even imagine." A quirky grin and light sparkles in her eyes. She didn't think Abby was going to try and steal her trinkets and stones. Friends don't steal. Come to think about it.. maybe that fox wasn't her friend after all. She tucked her blonde hair behind her ear without thinking too much about it exposing those pointed ears she tried so hard to conceal.
