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.

He remembers being a little boy with hair still like brandished gold and dark eyes filled with an impish delight. His brandished gold hair would be messy, as always, a wolfish grin upon his face, even in his youth. He would stroll into the market place with his mother as she would do some of the shopping, and whenever he thought the keepers were not looking, with the same wolfish smile, he would knick some of their fruit, or their treats that he could take home to share with his little sister. He had always been that child to bound ahead of his mother, as if knowing that trouble could never reach him. Marcelo had certainly never been one to cower and shy away, but leap forward at any chance of adventure, wolfish, rugged smile knowing no other position.

A playful growl erupts from his throat as he laughs along with her. "Umm yeah, I was human before I was a were, so I enjoy human things," he says before studying her with golden amber eyes. "Dont you go to restaurants and stuff?""Don't tell me you have never had a steak before." He says. Steak was surely one of Marcelo's favorite dinners to enjoy, the rarer the better, but perhaps that was just the were in him, the jackal hungry for any scrap of meat it can get its greedy paws on.

Marcelo is finding this coyote girl to be something of a mystery. He finds her statement interesting. Maybe she had mostly been with humans before, but then, much of what else she had said wouldn't really make sense. Marcelo grows confused by her. "Well, who did you hang out with before?" He asks, pressing those cupped ears forward to catch her answer. Marcelo, for his part, has been apart of quite a few packs, it is what happens with you are immortal. The were coyotes he had lived with here in this country had been a rag tag crew, content to steal, gamble, and drink the night away. But that had been years ago, most of them were probably dead by now. And there was Marcelo: alive, young, and well, as always.

"Yeah, they were cool." Is all he says. In comparison to the amount of years that Marcelo has lived, the time with the coyotes was relatively short. Living with weres would certainly be very different than having lived with actual animals. "Anything," he agrees with something akin to a smirk upon his elongated nose. She then turns heel, telling him to follow her. Marcelo wags his tail once or twice before following right after her, the jackal near silent as he stretches out over he ground, black nose twitching as he attempts to catch the scent of whatever she had planned for them.

She catches the trail it would seem and Marcelo eagerly sniffs along with her, tail silent behind him as he concentrates. Where was she taking him? Dry ground turns to mud, but luckily the jackal's light frame keeps from from sinking in very much at all. But that is when he hears it, the sound he had often heard in the village where he had grown up. Pigs? He turns golden amber eyes to the female and gives the jackal equivalent of a shrug. "I am ready if you are," he says, showing those pearly whites. He licks his lips once before speaking again. "I know I said I love steak, but pork works out quite nicely too I would say." He gives wink of one of his eyes. "Lead us into battle, dear lady."
