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.

The University places a high focus both upon educating future generations but also on research to help revolutionize the world.

Edith, unlike her parents, had never been particularly fearful of other Weres. Of course, it wasn't as though she had truly known that many outside of her family, either. That naivety was what pushed her out into the clearing towards the shirtless man. She was silent, though he noticed her immediately. Any anxiety she might have had about the situation eased away from her at the sight of his friendly smile. "Hi," She said, equally as quiet as his voice. She felt shy, timid. But she hardly had time to linger on the feelings before their moment was invaded by the white stallion. Edith took a step back as the large horse snorted in her face. The look of shock was present on her face, and she shook her head as his voice rang out in her head.

"I..." The young woman stuttered out, clearly overwhelmed by the invasion in her head and the presence of the clearly Alpha male. The human male beside her spoke out first, and Edith merely took the opportunity to step back once again, trying to keep her distance from the horse. "We don't know each other," Edith confirmed, her voice shaky. She allowed the man to step in front of her, the manner almost protective. "And I didn't know these woods were yours. I just... needed a free place to crash." She made no indication towards the direction of said place to crash, instead preferring to keep that a secret as long as she could. If these truly were his woods, then she had no interest in letting him have access to her few belongings. She looked up again at the sound of the boy's voice. Kato. She filed the name in her memory, making sure that she would remember that. "I'm Edith," She said softly.
