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.

Some days were harder to be an empath than others, days like today when she could veritably feel the unease and disquiet rolling off of the lanky man's body even from her safe distance away. He seemed immune to any attempt at humor or lightheartedness she offered from the first moment she had greeted him on that dock. Maybe it had been a mistake to interrupt him and his failed fishing endeavor, but she supposed it was too late for that kind of thinking now. He seemed more than a little incredulous regarding her claim about Catfish and their rather unexpected enjoyment of cheese, which was understandable she had the same reaction as a young girl when her grandfather had told her the same thing. His biting remark about bullshit however was enough to almost make her wince, though the roll of his shoulder contradicted the harsh statement as if he couldn't care less despite that fact that between the two of them she actually had experience with the sport.
The more she questioned him the more it became apparent that he was doing little more than tolerating her and this entire conversation, of everyone she had met on the Ark or within the Pack none had ever been quite so sheerly closed down to any kind of friendship from the southern girl. She tended to pride herself on her charm and ability to win people over, it was rather key to her making decent tips every night, but Henry showed no interest in engaging with her beyond the necessary. Her inquiry about what he liked to do seemed to absolutely stop him cold, as if it was the wildest notion imaginable. Didn't most people have at least one thing they enjoyed doing, none of it really made sense. The answer he finally gave made things as clear as mud, the information that he was struggling with his memory as enlightening but none of it provided anything that would help her help him, as if that was her job. She never was one to simply ignore someone who needed help, even if she wished otherwise. Like called to like.
Her confusion only deepened as he referenced his dislike of being in the Ark despite living there, though she questioned her own knowledge enough that she asked if he did in fact live there. Stranger and stranger, the longer their conversation proceeded the more questions arose. His confirmation that he slept there was as blunt as everything else he had said so far, the acidic remark regarding their shared boss causing her eyebrows to raise, though he r questions died on her lips. It wasn't every day she met someone who didn't like Tetra, or at least disliked him so obviously, especially not one of the Nightshade members. The alpha had never been anything but generous to her, but maybe Henry wasn't so lucky. It was no secret that the panther often dwelt in the darker side of things.
Tousled blonde locks shifted as she shook her head no, the pack hadn't offered any information about Henry other than the obvious and she hadn't pried.
