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 last thing he expected was company. The kids were bad enough but now this chick was walking up out of nowhere and apparently wanted the other swing beside him. His head was pounding by this point and he rubbed at his temples, trying to make it go away. He glanced up as she reached out to touch the chains, seemingly wary as if they might hurt her or something. It didn't take him long to figure it out. He'd once been a very learned man of other species. "Don't worry. It's not iron." He muttered to the girl, putting his head back down to continue rubbing at his temples. A fae, just what he needed. He listened as she sat on the swing, but it wasn't long before he heard crackling noises. Curious, he glanced up, only to see ice spreading up the chains. He scowled. "Don't you know how to be discreet?" At this rate, it's a wonder she's still alive. Was she just showing off or could she not control her own powers? He snapped his head up as someone shouted, groaning as his head throbbed at the girl's shrill voice. He couldn't help but smirk a little though at the comment. He glanced back over at the woman beside him, wondering how she'd react. The woman let out a disgruntled response and she got a number of glares for it. The child was crying now and he scowled. Couldn't it cry quieter? Thankfully they left the park right after. The woman beside him had become a side show, the air freezing and he actually found his body shivering as he glanced over to see snowflakes in the air. When she turned to him, he scowled. "Damn, woman, can't you control yourself? I didn't dress for this weather. Calm it down." |
