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.

Sterling could hardly help the soft red hue that filled his cheeks at his lover's comment on how particularly good Henry thought he looked in a suit. Though he knew his lover was altogether sensual by nature, he'd almost forgotten what it was like to be observed in such a fashion. Still, he could hardly deny that he liked it. Liked it enough, anyways, to begin to pull that shirt from his form and drop his pants as he changed with little concern for his naked figure or those stolen glimpses Henry took when he thought Sterling wasn't paying attention. Still, it hardly took long for the man to change from those jeans and shirt he'd once worn to that slick tuxedo. His bright blue eyes watched as his lover fiddled with the last of his clothing before Henry's attention returned to him. He nodded at the man's question, though the sudden shift of the boat immediately saw his own gaze follow his boyfriend's to the window. They were finally leaving New York behind them, returning back to what now seemed like a sleepy town in comparison to that metropolis.

Thankfully, any somber thoughts on leaving 'home' were chased away by that outstretch of Henry's hand, that simple gesture so brought a warm smile to Sterling's features as he placed his hand within his boyfriend's. "Yeah." He answered simply, allowing the man to lead him to the dining room, slowly becoming aware, in the process, of the decided lack of other individual's on the boat. Was this whole yacht all for them? He hardly had a chance to question Henry about it, however, before the pair arrived to a rather large and yet, strikingly empty room. The candles offered the pair a soft glow, that music playing in the background clearly meant to set the mood. His eyebrows rose ever so slightly in surprise as Henry led him to the chair, pulling it out for him in the process. Sterling settled within it, watching as his lover ordered a rather vague wine and, soon enough, the pair were left to themselves.

That knowledge that Henry had even gone so far to ensure the chef had made his favorite dish caused him to shake his head ever so slightly. "Henry...I...I don't know what to say." And really, he didn't. Henry had gone through all this work for him. He vaguely remembered them being well off, at least, they had never want for anything but Henry had never gone to such lengths as he was now. "Thank you...this is all....amazing." His gaze trailed along the empty room and towards the windows on the far wall and the undoubtedly beautiful view they offered him. What on earth had he possibly done to deserve all of this? He'd be a fool to let his boyfriend go - not that he had intended to anyways but this was far beyond anything Sterling had ever expected.
