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.

death incarnate & night triumphant
Pursuing through the park, his hands casually lining his pockets, Andras is anxious for the sun to set though it was some hours off. The Fae had found himself unable to sit tight at his home in the city. He didn't bother checking the lodge near the edge of the city as he was certain Dorian would be busy with Sebastian; plus, he was aware the King had taken up the nocturnal tendencies to spend more time with his vampire fiancée. Eve... Well, Eve tended to do whatever she liked and very rarely visited her quarters, the woman was a little she-devil and the man didn't fully trust her but he was certain she would come once summoned.
He explored Sacrosanct as much as he dared, in hopes he might hear the arrival of new Fae to the city. Yet, the man himself had finally accepted that the faerie race was dwindling at a far more rapid pace than he cared for. The slaughter of his own court all those centuries ago had rocked the supernatural world nearly to its core. Andras was aware of the surprise and near devastation in Dorian's eye when he recounted the memory to him only several nights ago.
Rolling his shoulders to release the tension that so lined the muscles, he exhales deeply before those hazel eyes seek out his favorite deer trail. One that was rarely used, except for nosy blonde haired human women. Snorting at the ridiculous encounter that had happened only several nights ago, he had made sure to keep tabs on her. For someone who wasn't afraid of the monsters that prowled at night, she was still decidedly bold. Whether his secret was safe with her or not, time would only tell.
Removing a hand from his pocket, he moves further into the forest as he brushes back the dense vegetation. Bowing his head to sneak under the low hanging branches it isn't long before his clearing comes into view, though there is an unfamiliar scent that clings to the air. He pauses, as he breathes it in again, the owner of that fragrance decidedly immortal and very much Fae. His curiosity piqued, he prowls into the clearing, the sunlight catching his dark locks. He pauses to catch the trail again and once he picks it up he lazily moves onward. It doesn't take long before an unfamiliar figure comes into view, that of a young woman with midnight locks. Arching a brow, he tilts his head back to look at her as she lounges in that tree above him.
"Comfortable?" He asks, a touch of amusement coating his lyrics. It was a rarity to find others in a tree besides himself.
