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. The University welcomes the talent of students across the world to enroll and unlock their unlimited potential. With applications from across the nation, classes fill up quickly.

Emmy, despite her rather intense appearance, was nothing short of an affectionate soul who truly wanted to believe there was good in everyone. They were all different in personality, but at the root of it all, they were still human. They still valued life over death. It didn't matter if they had powers or could shift into animals. None of that truly mattered. They were still human. They felt love and joy and hurt and hate all the same. Those feelings were a universal language, one that Emerson tried to speak plainly.

So naturally, when she saw the young gentleman waiting for the bus, it was her instinct to hope that he was friendly. While she could be skittish at times, she tried not to take out her fears on others. She had stepped into his space. If anyone should be a little skittish, it was him. She saw the way he looked at her sword and she could almost feel him tense. She tried to be friendly, to ask if the bus she needed had come by, but it didn't seem to be helping much.

He informed her that the bus had just left and she sighed. She wouldn't run after the bus. After a long day of walking and talking to strangers, she was done. She really wished she had a stiff drink right about now. While Emerson had never been a big drinker, she did find that she enjoyed a drink every now and then. Now, she needed one. Her feet were aching and her stomach growling.

Settling herself against the bench, she sighed softly and began to stare down at her feet. She heard him speak and she slowly looked up at him. At his words, she gave him a soft smile with a hearty chuckle. "No, I didn't plan on it. It's just there for protection...mostly for show." While she was a pretty mean hand with her sword, she didn't pull it out unless she felt threatened. Something about this stranger didn't make her feel uncomfortable at all. It was rather surprising when she thought about it. "I'm Emerson...but call me Emmy." She figured if she was going to be here until the next bus arrived, she might as well try to be friendly.
