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.

It was so unlike the young woman to allow herself those bitter feelings that currently pulled at her form. For everything that Beck had been in her life, she had forced herself to change and be stronger than that. It was no different tonight, even if, as of late, those memories had found their way back to the surface. "No," The Were girl said as she shook her head. "I don't need to vent. Tonight is a happy night." And it was. She was going to take the girl out and they would have a grand time and there would be no more thoughts of fathers or boyfriends. Edie moved around her then, working to perfect the makeup of the other fox. "Your eyes are lovely," Edie commented as she smeared the primer for her eyeshadow across Alexis' lids. It was easy for the girl to fall silent and work on giving her those smokey lids and dark winged eyeliner. "The boys are going to be so intimidated by you." It was only once she painted Alexis' lips in a dark red color did she stand up and help her to her feet. Spinning her towards the mirror, Edie grinned wildly. "See, you're gorgeous. Now let's go."

The woman grabbed her own leather jacket and pushed her arms through it before she handed a similar one to Alexis. "It's cold," She commented by means of explanation before she pushed a pair of heels at the woman. Once they were both fully dressed, Edie leaned over and grabbed her hand to pull her out of the room and down the stairs. The Beta girl didn't pause to see if the other members of her pack were within that lounge before she pulled her outside. "So I don't drive," She explained as she pulled her phone out, quickly ordering them a taxi. "I never learned how, though I don't think it would be that bloody difficult." She offered the woman a shrug. Within minutes their taxi had arrived and Edie was shuffling the two of them into the back of the car, offering up instructions to the Northern side of town.

"So," The fox said as she regarded her companion, a happy grin dancing on her features as she watched the city fly by outside the window. She loved the world at this time of day when all the lights twinkled like stars. She felt incredibly drawn to being outside then, especially in the Northern parts of town and those glitzy clubs. "Tell me, Alexis, what kind of boys are you into? Or is it boys at all?" The girl flashed her a teasing smile as that taxi pulled up in front of the club that Edie had specified. She passed a handful of bills over to the driver before she got out, quite literally dragging the other woman out and onto that sidewalk that was so full of people.

This was the kind of environment in which Edie found herself thriving, and it was that alone that had her hand finding the other woman's to guide her through the crowd and into the club. She'd clearly picked well and had chosen one of the hot spots for the evening - something that Edie was talented enough at that she could almost consider it a power. The thumping music was so loud that she could feel it in her chest Just the way she liked it. She turned then, looking at the girl with a happy grin. "So, should we get drinks first or dance?" She called over the music, clearly thrilled with either option that might have been presented to her.
