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.

for the lips of a forbidden woman drip honey
her speech is smoother than oil
but in the end she is bitter as wormwood
sharp as a two-edged sword
her feet go down to death
her steps follow the path to Sheol

- PROVERBS 5:3-5;;
The full moon was hanging low within the sky, it's rays brushing across the thin vines of the unorthodox upside down tree. It had become her spot, her place to work her most powerful magic, her most powerful potions. It was often time consuming, allowing the mixture to brew down slowly and steadily into the poignant liquid that could bring miracles into the world. Usually, Serafina was capable of staying awake, but tonight she found her eyelashes fluttering closed, her eyelids growing heavy and a yawn settled on her lips. It was important that she stay awake, vital even. Every hour her thick gooey substance needed to be rotated exactly one hundred and twenty degrees or else the entire thing would be for naught. It hadn't been the first time she had attempted this particular potion nor did she doubt it would be her last. She had tried to get an extra good night's sleep before. She tried to prepare herself for an evening spent staying up the entire night. Unfortunately for Serafina, most of her plans had failed entirely. For the past few evenings, any efforts at getting any kind of sleep had been ruined by the sudden appearance of a poltergeist.

It was just her luck really - to finally take a stand for her mentor only to find herself haunted from her results. Surely she deserved it but it was not something she was willing to admit out loud. She knew that the chances of being able to stay awake during the entire evening was slim - or it would go smashingly since she hadn't been sleeping that well in the first place. Either way, in the end Serafina decided it was best to not reschedule her efforts to create her potion if only because it provided her a nice excuse to not be home. Her liquids were brewing nicely within her cauldron, everything was set up and prepared for the rather long night ahead of her. At first - everything seemed to be going well, her book had engrossed her enough that she was able to remain rather alert but as the moments went on, as the night went on, she found herself starting to drift till her eyelids fluttered closed and she found herself drifting off to the first peaceful sleep she'd had perhaps all week.
