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.

The young warlock held an almost uncanny belief within his boyfriend, one that hardly swayed in the face of a feral mauling or, in this case, a burnt dinner. He remained the very face of optimism, even if the interior of the boy was rarely just as gleeful. Still, the results of tonight were hardly all that bad. Sterling was often resigned to merely find contentment within Henry's continued presence in his life, especially considering just how their relationship had twisted and turned since Henry's return. A warm simper brushed across the chef's features at that idle comment of instead microwaving their dinner rather than attempting to brave the gas burners of that stove. A small shrug crossed his shoulders, his lips parted to respond and yet, any words he might have offered his boyfriend were near abruptly cut off by another voice. His parted lips slowly closed, as his bright blue eyes glanced over the mysterious girl and yet, she seemed rather focused upon the man at his side. He was altogether aware of that prickling sensation upon his skin at her presence. She was, he knew near instantly, not like him. No, she was a were...like Henry. Perhaps she was a member of that mysterious Pack that Henry spent so much time with?
For a moment, Sterling simply watched the pair of weres with a sense of curiosity and yet, he hardly saw a reason to intervene in what was clearly a memory reserved for the two of them. He was hardly prepared for that moment with the woman's warm grin turned so fully towards him with that introduction. "Sterling, it's nice to meet you Malia." He responded, making every effort to be polite to the woman he could only assume was apart of that other half of Henry's life. Maybe Malia was Henry's maker? Hadn't Henry said it was a man? Maybe? His eyebrows crinkled in thought. Frankly, it was altogether rare for the boy to speak much of his pack, leaving Sterling quite in the dark of them at large. That simple lack of knowing somehow had an ability to make the man anxious. He could hardly pinpoint exactly why that very sensation fluttered in his soul. Perhaps it was a residual glimpse of that jealousy over that pack that he'd thought he'd bested or perhaps, it was the simple familiarity the two seemed to have with one another. Either way, the boy did his best to remain wholly pleasant all the same, "So...are you two like....pack members or something?" He inquired, his gaze shifting between the two inquisitively.
