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.

Nadya's children were beautiful creatures and it made his heart yearn for a child of his own some day. He had always felt as though he would be a good father, that he would love his child unconditionally and teach his child to grow into a good, Christian, man or woman. He wanted to show his child how to lead a good life, a fulfilling life, and he wanted so much to see someone look at him how Izzy and Micah looked at their own mother.
And yet, that life was an uncertainty for the were man. No one had come close to loving him fiercely where he might give himself completely to them. He had never loved so deeply that he would do anything to save the other from pain and heart break. No one had loved him in that manner either. It was hard when one was so different. But Ashton did not lose hope. Someone would stumble into his life eventually and he would be unable to let them go.
Ashton looked lovingly down at the twins as they both grew confident enough to begin to splash in the water. He nodded his head to both, his smile spreading from ear to ear as he watched them slowly open up to the water. "Good job kids, keep splashing!" He was happy that they were at least trying to be interactive. He had known several kids who were so scared of water that even putting their feet in was terrifying.
It was when Nadya asked him if he had a pack that his eyes grew a little wide. He had never been one who was overly open about his were background. While he was not ashamed of it, he simply did not need to tell everyone. He had heard that this place could be a little dangerous with beings that only wished harm on them. "No, I have yet to find a pack. Some day, I suppose." He thought back to Malia and he couldn't help the soft smile that spread across his lips. He remembered the day they met and the "date" they went on to the arcade. She had called him out very quickly about being a were and wanted to run with him. He couldn't help the chuckle that escaped his lips at the appalled expression she gave him when he refused to undress in front of a stranger. To see her meet someone as strict as himself had been amusing. But that was all that had come of talk of joining a pack. "I'm not even sure how many established packs are even in Sacrosanct." He had to admit that was not someone he knew too much about. He didn't know about the feuding packs, the politics, the red tape. He just knew that at some point, he wanted that bond with someone.
