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
Cull & Pistol

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.

She watched everyone throw out the casual greetings. They all seemed so used to each other. So comfortable with one another. She hoped in time she would blend right in with that. Henry seemed the most observant, almost like he was still getting used to all this himself. She wanted to ask but of course they didn't really know each other that well yet. Maybe some time later she'd get to know him better. She gave him a look when he chuckled at Tobias' comment about girls hugging too much. She raised a brow but turned back to the food. Men and their bro code. As she tossed the chicken foot into her mouth, she made a comment about it and Henry said it was nasty and that it could stay a secret. She snorted but didn't comment, still wanting Tobias to believe it.
Alexis knew Raven and the rest of the pack had been very welcoming to her before when she was at the Ark but it didn't feel right. She wasn't pack then. She was the outsider looking in. Raven was so excited and it was infectious. She started saying she could show her how to cook and Alexis beamed. "Really? That would be awesome!" She had always shown an interest before, often hanging out in the kitchen to watch Raven cook and help out with things she could do. But that was when everyone was in a dark mood over losing Tetradore and it wasn't like it was the right time for teaching. She had patience, letting Raven figure out the connection between her and the pack now. She had to hold her tongue to keep from blurting it out. Raven gave Tobias a look at the girls comment before she started berating him, saying she was the only girl. Alexis lifted a brow, watching and waiting.
Then Raven said wait a minute and her eyes went wide. Alexis smirked, patient. Suddenly Raven turned back to her, grabbing her hands and jumping. Alexis giggled. She nodded. "Yes, I'm really in." Raven pulled her into another hug and she wrapped her arms around her best friend, smiling. When Raven pulled back, she ran over to Tetradore, embracing him as well. Alexis hid her smile behind her hand. It was quite adorable. Tetradore meanwhile was indulging Tobias, agreeing with him about no more girls. Alexis snorted in response. When she teased them about bromance, Tetradore said Tobias wouldn't know it if it hit him in the face. Alexis laughed, glancing over at Tobias, wondering if he would retaliate. When Raven hugged him, he looked for all the world like he was about to topple over. He grabbed the table to stop himself and then told Raven thanks but warning next time. She smirked at their comradery.
Tobias was watching her almost in a creepy manner. Did he even know that he wasn't blinking? She blinked at him as if to explain but knew it would do no good. So she went back to eating the chicken feet and pretending for all the world that it was the most delicious thing ever. Tobias grinned then and said he thought she was lying. She smirked. "Maybe sometimes, but not this time." She answered back as she popped another foot in her mouth. She watched as Tobias interacted with Henry first, repeating what Tetradore had said only moments before. Then they turned to the subject of allowing girls into the pack. Tobias seemed satisfied that Tetradore agreed with him before he looked confused about her use of the word bromance. Tobias then asked about bromance and said Tetradore was his brother. Alexis glanced at Tetradore, poking her bottom lip out.
"Aww, that is adorable." Tobis then snorted before trying to catch Tetradore's chair when Raven hugged him. She giggled behind her hand as he scolded her, sure that Raven could handle herself against her future husband. Then Tobias turned back to the boys, complaining some more about girls. Alexis rolled her eyes. Tobias then turned to Henry, asking if he wanted to play with someone called Steve and Charles. Alexis raised a brow, glancing at Henry in question. This should be good. She leaned in a little to listen.
