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 places a high focus both upon educating future generations but also on research to help revolutionize the world.

Henry was happy that Sterling found humor in watching him attempt to eat his meal with chopsticks. He had always wanted to learn, but he had never been very good at it. Normally it just scooped some meat onto his chopsticks and ate it that way. Eating the rice? That was impossible. So when Sterling suggested the fork, he did just that...happy that he could now enjoy his dinner. When Sterling spoke, explaining that one day he would teach him to use chopsticks properly, Henry nodded. "Good....because these things are the devil right now." His words came before some good laughter as he finished off his meal and began to pack up their trash.

After they were finished eating, Henry inquired if Sterling had any sort of plans for this evening. He wasn't sure if he wanted to see some of his old friends or coworkers. When he spoke, Henry smiled and leaned in to place a chaste kiss on his lover's lips. "I have something special for you. But you need to wait here..." His voice trailed off as he hopped off the couch and padded down the hallway and into the bedroom they used to share.

Closing the door behind him, Henry went to work preparing the bubble bath that he wanted Sterling to enjoy. He made sure the water was warm and plenty of bubbles were forming. He placed lavender bath salts in the water to help soothe Sterling's aching muscles. He lit candles all around the bathroom before turning on some relaxing music and flipping off the lights.

When he arrived back into the living room, he smiled. "Close your eyes." He waited until his lover had done so before he helped him to his feet. Taking hold of his hands, he led his lover down the hallway and into the bedroom. Once the door was closed behind him, he led him into the bathroom, closing those doors as well. He halted Sterling before he slowly let go of his hands. "Open." He waited for Sterling to take in the scene before him before he continued. "Into the bath you go!" He slid off his jeans, dressed only in his boxers as he climbed onto the platform of the tub. He slipped his feet into the water while sitting on the edge. "Come on, get yourself settled. I'm going to give you a shoulder massage." And when he finally settled between his legs, Henry began to massage the knots in his shoulders that had built up from his stressful job.
