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.

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.
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.

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.

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.

Camellia could hear voices coming from somewhere in the ship, though she was not entirely sure if they were real or if her mind was creating them for her to follow a cold trail. All she knew was that she was in a foreign pack's territory, wandering aimlessly and alone, and that left her incredibly tense. Her cold, gray gaze scanned around the ship that seemed so empty, but her nose and ears, if they were to be trusted, told her otherwise. Her power surrounded her, wrapping around the area and chilling the air as it remained ready to lash out and any that might try and attack her. This was not ideal, in fact she hated it and her displeasure showed on her face; she was certainly no friendly, cheerful delivery girl. If she could, she'd have thrown the box into the ocean and simply told the man she'd delivered it successfully to get paid, but her employer had insisted he would check to see it made it there safely, so she bit the bullet and walked into the unknown.
Despite being in foreign pack territory, when confronted with someone else her body posture remained as dominant and commanding as it always was, a cold aura of power exuding off of her like a pheromone. Gray eyes sliced over the woman that made herself known, sizing her up and trying to gauge if she was real or not as she replied in soft tones. It was clear they had a mutual distrust of one another, and could at least agree on one thing: neither wanted Camellia to be on the ship. The canine was clearly submissive, and that allowed at least a small amount of Cam's harshness to fade from her eyes, though she still afforded the stranger no trust. The feline nodded and followed beside the woman, who wisely kept her back from being exposed while leading or even daring to think Cam would let her walk behind her. At some point as they made their way back through the ship, the silver haired woman seemed to stumble slightly, gently bumping into the other in an innocent accident that saw an apologetic look sent to towards the canine. However, it was a deliberate ploy to check and see if this woman was actually there or simply another hallucination, the only way the tiger had found to figure out which was which was through touch; none of her other senses could be trusted.
The Siberian Tiger was anything but stupid, she knew that the wolf was not leading her to her alpha, but rather back to where she had come from in the first place. She truly didn't care, so long as this Tetrador showed up to take his package lest she have to literally hunt him down, and then this whole situation would become even more unpleasant...for him at least. Steely eyes cut into the girl as she offered her a unfavorable excuse and a seat to wait it. She neither wanted to sit nor wait, but she resigned herself to doing both to get this over with as smoothly as possible. She sat there quietly, her eyes wandering as she had no desire to start up a meaningless conversation, instead focusing on sorting through the voices in her head. At one point, she saw her parents standing there, making her jump slightly and her body tense up. Only after giving a glance to the other Were to see if she too saw the people standing there did she relax. Her finger's twitched with idle nerves, trying everything to stop herself from responding to the voices that she heard that weren't coming from the canine or being reacted to by her.
The sound of footsteps finally echoing through the halls has her gaze flicker up to the source, displeasure at the sight of not one, but two male Weres standing there. Once more does she glance to the canine, only reassured that they are real when she too recognizes them as being there. She snorts at the one's complaint about the drop in temperature, his lackey following suit in showing his discomfort and quickly helping her sort out who was who in the pecking order between the two. She watched as they both came down the stairs to her, standing in front of her with arms crossed in an attempt to appear intimidating, though she didn't even blink. She ignored his idiotic question, surely he had eyes if his canine subordinate hadn't already told him. The only reaction that got pulled from the girl was when the other male hissed and began to curse at her, even going to far as to throw her power back at her. Her eyes cut into him, glaring daggers as she did not hesitate to constrict him and him alone with her power, enveloping him in cold that would make his breath show, his skin break out in goose bumps, and perhaps he might shiver or his lungs might hurt from breathing in the cold air. Because she was petty, she decided to spite him, slowing the kinetic energy of all the water in the air above the shaggy male till it went from a gas to a liquid and dripped down onto him.
And with that she looked away from the male using big boy words and pathetic threats towards the alpha, who demanded to know how and why she was sent.
