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.

Emerson would eventually calm down. She was just a scared little puppy, lost and very much alone. She was in a new city that was proving even stranger by the hour and she was trying to control powers that at one point in her life, she had been forced to suppress. Now, she was asked to practice them. She had lost her boyfriend too. It was just a very rough week and Emerson was having trouble coping with all the new changes. She truly didn't mean to be such a bother to the vampire in front of her, she just didn't know how to calm herself down. She needed a stiff drink, that's what she really needed.

When she mentions that she's never met a vampire before, he seems to take it in stride, saying that he hoped he didn't disappoint. Granted, that was pretty hard to do when she truly didn't know what vampires were like. She'd read the Twilight books and even read Dracula, but both seemed fictionalized. She didn't know how real vampires were. Perhaps she should just shut up and learn.

She offers her name when asked, listening to his explanation of her name: "brave" and "powerful. She sighs. "Well, I certainly don't feel brave...and I feel a little too powerful than I can handle." She shrugs a little bit. Emmy had never really been brave â€" she survived. She did what she had to do to protect herself, but that didn't necessarily mean that she was brave. If given the choice to fight or flight...Emmy would run for the hills nine times out of ten.

He talks about the storm and she's trying to apologize. It may not be something to apologize here for, but from where she was from, creating a storm such as that was illegal. She looks at him curiously when he talks about enjoying learning about the powers of others. "Where I come from...it's illegal to practice your magic. You have to keep your talents hidden. My parents abandoned me when they found out I was a witch." She didn't go into much detain about her parents. But perhaps he might realize that she was not used to showing off her abilities. So many years of brainwashing had her mind all fucked up.

She continues to listen, hearing about how he wouldn't have minded seeing her attacker blown straight off the beach. Even though he might have deserved it for attacking Emmy, Emmy still didn't want to hurt anyone. "He may have deserved it...but I don't want to hurt anyone. I've already done too much damage with my power." Her voice was soft, fading away as she thought of Alex. She had killed him with a tornado much like the one on the beach. She missed him terribly.
