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.

As he pressed himself closer to her she watched him carefully, her body still torn at wanting to press herself against him and wanting to get away from him all together. It is true that she was not one that received such enamored or lustful desires from the opposite sex. Really and truly the looks she received were a mixture of disgust or sympathy. No, that wasn't true. There was a male, she remembered there was a male, dark almost black-like eyes held a sort of fondness to her. His eyes were capable of changing into a dark-golden hue that held so much affection for her. She knew those eyes, both of them, and they were not the eyes that were looking at her lustfully...or...was that hungrily? It was when his lips moved gently against her ear that for a moment a girlish giggle was released at the feeling of his whisper brush against her ear, her heart racing for a moment in sheer bliss. Though there was a familiar voice, it was masculine, whispering back quickly almost as if correcting the Bristish man with his incorrect moniker, Birdie...Birdie. Yes, that is right she thought, Birdie is my name not sweetheart, and it yet how could Raven overcome the sheer delight of hearing 'sweetheart' come from such a husky British voice. Name...he asked for a name...well quite frankly he could call her anything he wanted, and yet she could hear her true nickname echo faintly, reminding the girl what the answer was. As an afterthought she whispered softly to him, still a bit shy.
As the space between them only grew smaller and smaller, the creature was debating fight or flight. Touch was so very...personal more so than for most people. Even with the vampire warping her hormones around she was still incapable of truly growing comfortable. As his nose gently brushed against her neck instinct alone allowed the girl to move her neck away providing him more access. As his tongue began to tease the flesh at the base of her neck she could recall another tongue doing the same thing, preparing the girl to be tamed. Her eyes would close as she inhaled absolutely ready for what would come next, his teeth, her deviant companion's teeth sinking into her flesh intending to provide her pleasure and him reaffirmation of his claim on her. Yet no fangs came...which was...odd. Her eyes would open for a moment as he whispered to her a compliment she had never heard from a male before, and another nickname that she knew wasn't correct. Once more that familiar masculine voice whispered back in an echo, Birdie, Birdie, Birdie. Yes, she thinks again, Birdie is correct not love. As his thumb caressed softly against her scarred cheek she felt his lips leave her neck, and as he tilts her chin upwards, she looks at him for a moment. Her mind slowly growing a bit hazy as a very small smile appeared on her lips, whispering softly.
It had to be a lie right? No male said such things and she never saw herself as beautiful before. No...no scars weren't pretty...if they were then why would she get the looks she always received from others? He was lying...yes...lying. After all, the man with dark-golden eyes never called her that nor did he say that when his eyes were a dark ebony. He said something else though...something far more important...something she had never heard before that meant so very much to her. It was...it was...as she tried to figure out what the man with those changing eyes said to her, she looked up at the arctic blues of the unfamiliar handsome man in front of her as his lips pressed against her own, and she remained in place against the tree, her thoughts suddenly stopping, as she heard the faint echo of Birdie and a strong sense of this being entirely wrong, even though it felt so very good.
