South

The southern part of the city has a chic family-oriented sort of charm to it. Here, small locally owned shops run rampant, neighbors often know each other by name, and the monthly socials are an event not to be missed. In the South, children can often be seen safely playing in the park or on sidewalks and in the weekends, families often take to the beach to enjoy the warm waters surrounding the city.

Ascension Center of Equitation

The Ascension Center of Equitation is the epicenter of the Dark Hunter Cavalry Unit. Originally a high-class facility for show-jumping, Ascension now caters entirely to the Cavalry Unit. Here the Dark Hunters learn how to ride and fight upon the backs of horses - many of which are Were's themselves.

Hyde Park

Hyde Place takes up a large part of the Southern side of the city and includes a large playground, several fountains, and a small garden. The park is open from five in the morning till midnight though many shady characters may visit this place while it's technically "closed". The park has also been a venue for several concerts and hosts many holiday-related events. Under a full moon, witches are often seen here for the sacred ground beneath the iconic Weeping Beech.

Point Defiance Zoo and Aquarium

The Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium (PDZA) is an award-winning combined zoo and aquarium located within the Southern Part of Sacrosanct. Situated on 92 acres in Sacrosanct's Hyde Park, the zoo and aquarium are home to over 9,000 specimens representing 367 animal species. Point Defiance is also widely known for its conversation efforts regarding the breed and release program of Red Wolves.

The Outskirts

Beyond the city limits and over the bridge lies the deep, dark, and almost impenetrable forest. Often seen as a way to guard this magical city against the world that surrounds it, many are entirely ignorant of the evil that may creep between those tree trunks. Many were-creatures use the forest for the transformations of their newest members and some even take to hunting here. It isn't particularly peculiar for people to go missing within this forest but once you get through, the rest of the world awaits.

The University of Sacrosanct

The University of Sacrosanct offers some of the top programs in the nation with its outstanding campus and specialized faculty. The University places a high focus both upon educating future generations but also on research to help revolutionize the world. The University welcomes the talent of students across the world to enroll and unlock their unlimited potential. With applications from across the nation, classes fill up quickly.

Her anxiety blossomed in her chest like the fluttering wings of butterflies, her nerves were frayed and frantic and yet, Chizue knew she could not run from this opportunity. She needed to feed - her own fragile life force felt as if it was already slipping away by each passing minute. The boys were, thankfully, fully engrossed in their baffled confusion on the seemingly young child's appearance. They would hardly notice her existence. Just one touch - that was all she needed and then she could flee back into the relative safety behind the lock doors of Isolt's townhome. She swallowed down her fear, the gravel beneath the swing set crunching beneath her mary janes until she stepped up and over the wooden border and into the silent plush grass. Her very approach held an ethereal quietness to it as she reached out to the nearest boy. The colors of his aura danced with a magnificent vibrancy before her eyes, her fingers only barely touching his psychic energy before it began to draw itself into the dark gray hue that surrounded her - polluting her with its life. The transfer of energy was near instantaneous as his very personality slid into place over her far weaker one. Her fingers continued their forward movement, touching his shoulder with a genteel caress that seemed to startle him as he glanced back at her.

Her clear recognition of Anna-Marie was one the elder vampire was quick to catch onto as the girl grasped her offered hand - the two leaving the congregation of boys as abruptly as they had arrived, hardly garnering any further thought from them as they returned to their skateboarding and general tomfoolery. It was only once they were some distance away that Chizue finally dropped Anna-Marie's hand, the small vampire quick to comment upon the sharp contrast within the Asian woman. "Oh, you know, it's like a week before the cravings hit but I can safely push them back a month." She commented, far more up beat then her previous self, her hand gestures so reminiscent of a teenager as she spoke. Admittedly, Chizue was..young, by vampire standards and yet, of late, she had taken to nearly half starving herself if only to avoid any contact more than necessary with the outside world. Fear had gripped her heart like a vice since her kidnapping - it dissipating only in moments like this when her persona was tainted from a fresh feeding.

Regardless of the shift within her, she still listened acutely as Anna-Marie spoke of another vampire like her - a thing that Chizue hadn't even known existed. Besides herself, she had never met any that fed quite in the same way that she did. Still...it was...interesting to consider the way her brethren had taken to feeding, even if becoming a nun didn't quite appeal to Chizue in the same way. Her head cocked to the side as Anna-Marie asked after her own feeding preferences. A 'spike' was not usually what she sought, nor the devoted dullness that so often came with the ultra religious. "...I prefer bookstores." She answered after a moment, even if she made a face while she did so. The teenager she had taken over hardly held the same preferences as she did. The calm, intense, imaginative patrons of those cozy little bookstores seemed rather dull to the teenage persona compared to the hype and excitement of concerts and clubs and drugs.
