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.

Putting the pieces together

Wake up to your dreams
And watch them come true



It felt like an eternity standing there, watching and waiting for her brother to decide her fate. There were walls there in his eyes she didn't remember being there, walls she had no idea how to even begin making sense of or even begin to try to fix. How could she fix something she couldn't remember? At long last he spoke though it gave no more answers than it created. Nadya shifted as her brother brushed past her and she automatically followed. The more they walked the more the edges of her memories bled- it was true that it was an entirely new ship...but how? "...What happened to the other ship?" He could at least give her that answer could he not?

"Odd name...Frost.." Nadya mused lightly, her attention hardly giving thought to what twins Aiden was speaking of, instead latching onto the unwanted prospect of being taken by someone she didn't know. After her ordeal and continued memory issues, it wasn't an option she was keen on. Still, she followed him down that hall of the many identical doors until her brother deemed a certain one sufficient and opened it. This boat was a far cry from the other- this one lavish and built for living within. The woman took a moment to simply stand in the middle of the room and look out at the vast expanse of the ocean. The serene waters were the exact opposite to the tumultuous thoughts and feelings that plagued her. Shower, clothes, food, sleep, leave. Perhaps not in that exact order but she understood the general gist of what her brother expected of her. It made her chest tighten and forced her to focus on her breathing as she felt a surge of energy boiling just below the surface. Her brother's voice alone pulled her from becoming engulfed in that feeling completely. At least for now.

Nadya had to sit herself on the edge of the bed as the weariness began to drain her. "Who's Mira?" Obviously she was important enough for Aiden to continuously mention her. She raked a hand through her hair which was in dire need of a brush. A brief thought drifted to hoping that the bathroom was well stocked in not just toiletries but a brush. Those deep chocolate eyes sought out her brother once more, looking back at him with only pain in her eyes. "Staff or pack?" Yes, it mattered to her if only so she knew what connection the woman she was expecting with her food held. Did this Mira know about her or was she the sister he pretended not to have the moment she disappeared? Those troublesome thoughts rose in her once more bringing that heat and she had to fight to keep in control. Nadya's fingers twisted in the dirty fabric at her knees, "...Aiden..I-...thank you. I understand you don't want me here and I'll leave as soon as I'm done...but I ask that it be on my own and not with someone I don't know." It was her only request and could only hope her brother was allow her this. She'd manage to figure out the rest from there if only allowed a moment of rest and a change of clothes.
