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.

Nadya shrugged slightly at Aiden's inquiry of the toys. It seemed like she was shrugging a lot when around him. She simply didn't know how to talk to him after everything had gone on. "Anything metal didn't burn so easily in the fire. I just wanted to go back to see. You were older than I was when it happened. I was hoping if I was there...that'd I remember more. I've forgotten what mom and dad sounded like...I was having a hard time even remembering what they looked like. It's silly I know, but I wanted to try." Making that long trek simply to see if being in the rubble would help her remember things about their parents seemed silly when she said it out loud. Seeing as she was constantly following her brother around whenever she could most of the sketchy memories she had was with him. She watched him carefully, reading his body language that told her he was not displeased with her presence which caused her own body to relax and lean against the desk to ease the extra weight from her feet.
"It's funny how you can forget the big things but remember such insignificant ones. You always liked fast things and I remember being so proud that I picked out that toy myself for your birthday." In most situations it was a parent that got the present and simply told the child what is was "they got" for the other person. Nadya had been five and insisted on picking something out herself that year. She had been as equally delighted seeing how much Aiden had liked it. Nadya shrugged again. Really, she had to stop doing that. Her attention drifted to the ultrasound picture on his desk and her form tensed slightly again. "I understand if you don't want the picture...I just wanted to...offer. The nurse says they're a bit small but developmentally could be due any day now. I've decided to have their middles names after mom and dad like you said, Layla and Ashton, it just feels right."
Nadya's voice trailed off for a moment before continuing, her hands resting on her stomach as she dared to step closer to her brother to stand beside him. "They won't know you as you were in that club. Maybe though they could know you how I remember you. You had such a light in your eyes. I still see it you know, when Isolt is around, a glimpse of the old you that I wish you would let out more." She smiled softly as the tender sisterly part of her started to come out. "Isolt is a vampire but she's been kind to us, kind to me being there and helpful with the whole pregnancy. If you like her then you should be with her."
