West

The western part of the city is often home to the poorer residents. Here there is a grunginess that permeates the town from the graffiti on the once cleaned brick buildings to the broken and unmaintained architecture. Crime runs high within the western half of town, making it the home of supernatural gangs of illicit activities. Such activities are rarely reported, however, and most residents are distrustful of individual's of authorities, and often let the powerful supernatural beings sort things out amongst themselves. Be careful wandering the Western streets after the sun falls.

Black Market

Just like any city - Sacrosanct is not without it's deep, dark underbelly. Hidden in the graffiti-ridden streets of the West, behind closed warehouse doors, lies the Black Market. Forever moving, it's nearly impossible to find without knowing someone who knows someone. Anything you desire can be brought for a hefty price within the Black Market - be it drugs, weapons, or lives.

What You'll Find Here

Edge of the Circle

Cull & Pistol

Hidden within the dark alleyways of the Western Ward, Cull & Pistol is a dim, often smoky bar. With a small variety of bottled and craft beers, Cull & Pistol is a quaint little neighborhood joint. With its no-frills moto, the dingy bar offers little more than liquor, music from an old jukebox, and a few frequently occupied pool tables.

Bartender Raylin Chike

Noah's Ark

Resting upon the harbor, Noah's Ark (known simply as The Ark) is a sleek superyacht known both for its fight rings and recent...renovations, of sorts. Accessible from an entrance hidden in the shadows, The Ark is a veritable Were-playground that specializes in fighting tournaments for all creatures great and small. With both singles and doubles tournaments to compete in, the title of Ark Champion is hotly contested amongst the Were population. If anything illegal is going on in the city it's sure to be happening within the back rooms or behind the ring-side bar. Note: This is a Were only establishment. All other species will be swiftly escorted out.

Syn

Within the turbulent industrial district lies this club. The warehouse doesn't look like much on the outside but it provides a memorable experience from the state of the art lighting, offbeat Victorian-inspired artwork, comfortable black leather lounges, and the infamous 'black light' room. There is a wide variety of alcohol that lines the shelves of both of the magical and ordinary variety. It is a common stomping ground for the supernatural who want to let loose and dance the night away to the music that floods the establishment. Humans are most welcome if they dare.

The empath longed for the company that the Were girl might provide her. Or any company, really. She wanted so desperately to go back to the room next door and drag Aiden away from that desk of his. She could so easily pull him from the business he had to attend to and back into bed with her, and even though she knew she had that power to be so utterly enticing to him, she knew he needed to work. It was a full moon tonight, after all, and while he'd held no complaints to her presence at the Ark, she knew that he would be gone most - if not all - of the night to leave her here alone. She could - and probably should - go home. And yet she wanted nothing more than to go to sleep tonight knowing she would wake up beside her beau. It was easier then to distance herself now rather than later, wasn't it? If they spent the whole day curled up between those sheets, it would be even harder to tear herself away from him later. So it was that in mind that had her searching out an alternate option to spend her afternoon.

Samantha could so readily feel the way Raven seemed to hesitate in speaking to her. She could feel the way Raven wanted to pick up that book once more, and for a single moment before Raven voiced her acceptance to Sam's request to spend time with the girl, she considered ducking back out of the room to let the girl have the peace she deserved. And yet, selfishly, Samantha wanted time with her friend and that made her come back into the room to sit down on the bed across from her. Truly, the girl hardly held any fault to the woman for what had happened the other night. She allowed the woman her words before she assured her that she held no anger for what had transpired. She wanted to make her friend feel better, though she felt helpless as to how to do so. She shifted awkwardly under the silence that had settled between them.

The way that the awkwardness hung between them, Samantha fully expected that Raven would deny her request entirely. Instead, she was delighted by the way that the opposite seemed to occur. She brightened immediately as Raven stood, the girl nodding her understanding regarding the full moon. "I know," She replied, instinctively looking at the watch on her wrist. "We should have a few hours right?" She knew that Nadya was nervous about taking the kittens out tonight, and was sure that all hands - Were hands, at least - would need to be on deck to help. She was oblivious to the fact that Tobi was the father, or that Raven didn't know them. Still, the young girl hardly focused on that as she quickly tapped the back pocket of her jeans, reassuring herself of her wallet's existence before she stood.

"Give me just a moment," She said with a smile, darting out of the room and back into Aiden's room. She hardly paid the man any attention other than to press her lips to his cheek with a quick comment on where they were going. Other than that, she grabbed her own leather jacket off the chair, slipping it on before she rejoined Raven in the hallway. The fae remained silent as they exited the Ark, though a smile was plastered on her features at the delight she felt in spending time with her friend. "Oh," She said after a few minutes of the only sound being that of their shoes on the pavement. "I've been meaning to thank you. My monarchy... I mean, you brought Ivy to me. It was kind of your idea. I just wanted to thank you for it. It's really going so well."
