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 was a struggle to force the spirited leopard to remain still, the slashing of claws and the flailing of paws beat against the ebony panther's frame and yet, Tetradore was hardly willing to give way on this matter. He was, if anything, a stubborn creature, steadfast when he puts his mind to something and every thrash made upon his figure only sees the panther tighten his grip and throw more weight upon the spotted feline. He stood steady over the creature, taking the blessed moment of peace to extract his own reminder upon the boy's hide of his position within their pack. Only once his mark is placed, and the boy's submission is assured did Tetradore move, ignoring entirely the feminine voice that called out to him. His gaze hardly shifted to his sister's figure, his anger at her still very present despite his acute focus upon the spotted leopard. He settled not terribly far away, his tail wrapping around his ebony figure, his striking eyes turned else where as if to offer them the chill of his spine. That wasn't at all to say that he wasn't paying strict attention to what was going on behind him, however. The panther knew far too well that moments such as these, in the after math of such a challenge, were delicate ones indeed.
Tetradore could feel the intrusion upon his personal space, he could feel the closeness of another feline and it was his own bond within the pack that let him easily identify the leopard without a glance given within his direction. He was still, poised even, as he sat silently, his emerald eyes slowly and frigidly meeting the two toned figure that scooted forward. He noted Tobias posture, watched as his belly rubbed against the ground beneath them. His gaze looked on with indifference as Tobias settled at his feet. He felt the boy's mind brush against his own, offering a simple promise that the images Tetradore had shown him would not be repeated. A soft puff of air left his nose, entirely disbelieving that the act wouldn't happen again, especially knowing his sibling. His gaze shifted from the boy below him towards the female not terribly far off, his eyes narrowed ever so slightly but he all together remained silent on such thought process. His attention, however, was quickly returned towards the leopard at the boy's vocalized apologize.
He remained silent, offering not a single word in response. The wound was too raw to simply accept that which had been done. Forgiving was not something that came easily to Tetradore and though he allowed his companion's tongue to slide across his cheek, he only stayed long enough that he no longer felt the trickle of blood matting his fur. The moment his cheek felt clean, the panther rose to his feet, turning abruptly to scamper up a near by tree, his claws leaving marks within it's bark. He hardly bothered to explain his departure from them, instead leaving them to continue their hunt. After all - they seemed like they had been getting along fine without him this entire time.
