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.

Henry listened quietly to her side of the story, about how she tried to make amends, to try and allow her babies to know their father and their uncle. He didn't blame her for it, in fact he commended her for at least trying. However, that said, he knew that she would never be completely accepted until both sides dropped the bullshit. Despite the truce offering, he knew that there would still be rivalry...even with truce. There was no way they could all be happy with one another. There was too much animosity between them all for anything good to come of it. "I never said you didn't try. I just said peace will never be possible unless everyone can magically drop their animosity towards one another. I'm not taking sides, just stating truth." While he wished that everyone could just get along, he knew it wasn't possible and it would be a waste of time and energy to assume that it could be possible.
He watched as Nadya instructed the twins to gather their things. He slowly stood off the towel of one of the kids, brushing off the sand and stepping aside so the towel could be gathered up. He looked back at Nadya as she told him to stay away from the residential area. He sighed. "I live there too and I have no intention of moving." He had to stick around to try to keep Sterling safe. While he wasn't sure he trusted himself to do that, he had to at least try to make sure his boyfriend felt safe there. He was a little sorry that he couldn't give Nadya the assurance of knowing her kids were safe from him. He wasn't going to leave Sterling and he needed her to know that he was very serious about having no intention of leaving unless Sterling wanted to leave.
He nodded his head at Nadya, listening as she offered her final piece of advice. He wasn't sure he would be able to help much with the truce, but he would work on his feralness. He hoped he could one day control his feline half. If not for the safety of his own pack, then definitely for the safety of Sterling.
He turned and began to walk away, hearing the last little goodbye from Izzy. He smiled at her and waved before turning back to continue his walk down the beach.
