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.

It is with the narrowing of brilliant sage eyes and the crinkling of a lightly-freckled nose that Anastasia rebuffs her dear father's offer to defile the perfect mahogany brew she sips with something as truly repugnant as creamer. Yet just as soon as the scowl should coil upon her lips as a proud, glouting feline do their brims quirk, an undeniably impish smirk coaxed to life by Alexander's insistence that the love for the artificial sludge had become tragically... pandemic. "Ah, but surely a man who does his business in coffee should know better than to call that cream," she purrs, the veil of venom laid thinly over the lighthearted jest of her words. And yet it all but evaporates with her father's insistence that they should come across a generous handful more of statues carved in his likeness before the day was out. "God help me," she proclaims, rolling her own eyes in turn, "today promises to be a momentous trial for my tolerance of the sight of your face." A cruel sentiment, perhaps, though for any individual who might profess to know the dispositions of both father and daughter it was simply the flickering gleam of yet another facet of the love she bore him.
The pair emerges unto the sunlit avenue moments later, the omnipotent fingers of golden light cascading down the gossamer waves of Anastasia's crimson strands. The sun and its warmth, it seemed, existed in an endless supply in this place... so very unlike most of the rest of the world. It is one of a series of attributes that had, over time, succeeded in endearing the sullen Russian duchess to this place. And so she is content to meander down the cobblestone avenue beside her Maker in silence, surveying the wares of the various vendors displayed beneath the billowing veils of their respective tents. As the impromptu shops grow more sparse, however, Anastasia moves to lean a hefty query unto the easy silence betwixt them. "So, are you going to tell me what you're after, Alexander? Or do you prefer to have me guess?"
