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.

i'm not ashamed of my scars, i'm ashamed of the world for not understanding.

Within just a few minutes the submissive and docile lupine was nothing more than an ebullient and energetic creature. For such a wary and shy girl it was hard to even imagine that she was even capable of acting and being this way. For anyone that knew her, it was hard to even imagine that this particular wolf was capable of having such high spirits. Raven was not acting cautious in this moment. She did not move as if she had experienced such dark atrocities in her life. No longer was there any sadness or pain in those blue-grey eyes. Instead there was a sheen of merriment that seemed to bring back a lighter shine to them. Whatever heavy weight she had been carrying on her shoulders, all that guilt she continued to harbor, couldn't be seen on her frame, as she eagerly raced through the field In pursuit of the harmless creatures. Why it was Armadillos that unlocked Raven from the comfort of her shell, perhaps no one would know, but it was these innocent creatures that allowed the troubled woman to have a moment of blissful unwavering fun.


It was indeed uncommon for Raven to boldly approach her Alpha in such a fashion. Even though he had declared her as his sister-in-law of sorts, familial ties wouldn't even persuade her to invade his personal space. She respected him far too much, and in a way, feared him too. Even though he had never raised a hand or claw against her in an abusive fashion, she was still afraid. After all with her last Alpha she had familial ties with him and that didn't keep him from harming her. A soft giggle could be heard in Tetty's head the moment his face turned away from her after her paw playfully batted at his nose. The girl finding his reaction absolutely funny. As she ran away from the panther she noticed one of the spherical creatures rolling beside her, quickly she turned and stopped it with her paw, but out of the corner of her eye she saw another armadillo rolling the other way. Releasing her hold on the first one she bounded towards the second one stopping it gently with one grey paw.


Sharply her dial lifted to see the panther on the other side of the field. Gently she began to roll the armadillo slowly with her paw, stopping it and then leaving it there. Quickly she began to round up the armadillos, chasing them to that one spot where she left the other one, or rolling them to it. Once she got herself an assortment of these creatures, her paw would gently tap their backs as the instantly rolled up. Gleefully she began to swing her paw quickly without hesitation, as she assaulted him with five armadillos. Even though he was a feline she knew there was no way he could catch all of them. Which was her entire intent because as her furry creatures rolled swiftly towards the panther, she ran through the tall grasses diagonal from the panther.


As he focused on catching the armadillos she would chase after the armadillos that tried to waddle away, forcing them to be back in their ball shapes, and batting them towards Tetradore. As she ran after the armadillos and carrying out her onslaught she would suddenly disappear within the tall grass. Carefully and silently moving through the grass as the jungle cat was dealing with her onslaught, with him focused on the creatures there was no way he would know she was sneaking up close to him to pounce. As she inched closer she knew she had to strike with his attention on the armadillos. Suddenly the peculiar lupine leapt right behind him, her body crashing into his own, her tail swaying side to side happily, a gleeful voice pressing into his mind.


"I got you!"
