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 continued calmness between the usually volatile packmates was odd, and perhaps would dissolve soon enough back into what was considering normality for the pair but for now each was calm and thus received such back. They moved with ease around each other, confident in the connection of their minds due to the pack bond, something that she didn't share with Raven. Nadya's movements even in her approach and shove against the she-wolf was stiff. While she took Raven's words into consideration, her explanation on why Nadya should trust her or at least not block her in a category with others, it stilled begged the question of why. Why did her old pack do those things to her? Packs have a reason in their treatment, canine or otherwise, and she must have done something to cause it.
Nadya was pleased that Tobias didn't try to stop her from asserting herself on Raven. However, her relatively controlled mood dissipated when Raven not only held her ground but licked her...only to bound away like a puppy to seek protection by Tobias. Her lips peeled back to bare pearly white incisors as a hiss escaped her throat, yellow eyes glaring at the wolf, her tail coiling and thrashing in anger. A canines tongue, wet and smooth, was an unpleasant change from the dry combing of the feline's she grew up with. It was also quite inappropriate for the situation. Tobias though willing to explain, as best he could, that Raven wasn't supposed to lick her like that. Nadya settled slightly since Tobias at least agreed and saw the wrong, the growl still vibrating in her as she licked her chops and settled back down to sit on her haunches, her body as tight and close in as it could get. "If you are going to be in a feline pack, you need to learn feline ways.. Tobias and I...we're pack, we're close, he can do that...you can't." Trying to describe the parameters that grooming was allowed was difficult. It wasn't a sign of submission per say but it was a way to show affection while affirming a bond with an individual...to gain their favor.
Her steely gaze shifted from its rigid position on Raven to the ever exuberant spotted leopard, watching his fascination with the wagging tail. Sometimes he really irked her and sometimes his awe with the things around him entertained her. Nadya's body leans slightly from the weight of his pressing into her shoulder briefly before he crouches, trying his mightiest to get the two to play. Playing and wrestling was about as much off limits to Nadya as hunting simply because it required a certain relaxation in order to wrestle and bat around with another, something she wasn't comfortable doing just yet. "I don't want to play Tobi." Nadya conveyed as delicately as she could, swiping out at the air in his direction before she got back to her feet and leapt up onto the nearest tree. Her claws dug into the wood, pulling her frame to the low hanging branch in which she settled onto, her tail hanging over to twitch and curl in the air, and her watching gaze following the pair. She was quite tired and sore all over though she simply contributed it to the earlier coupling with her vampire.
