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.

She could almost sense the mistrust of the little girl. Anna-Marie seemed as though she did not believe a word Amelia was saying. Perhaps, in hindsight, that was best than her getting overly curious and asking too many questions. At least now she might leave the baby topic alone. If she didn't think that Amelia had gotten pregnant far after turning vampire, maybe she would just assume she was turned while pregnant and not spill her secret. In the end, her baby was safer this way. So Amelia said nothing.

She felt the tug of small hands and eyes looked up to see Anna-Marie pulling her towards the shadows. She followed reluctantly. She paused a few paces from Anna-Marie, unsure as to what kind of power she was going to display and if it would be harmful to her baby. Everything was about her baby these days.

However, as Anna-Marie began to bend the shadows, drawing them into the figure of a monster, Amelia found that she needed to protect her baby from harm. Hands rested protectively on her abdomen as she watch in both horror and curiosity. Anna-Marie was far more demented than she probably should be. It made Amelia wonder if perhaps she had been denied a mother's love. She would have to try very hard to show her child that he/she was loved and appreciated, that her child could do anything he/she set his/her mind to. This baby would be showered with love an affection. Perhaps it would keep her child's soul pure...at lease as pure as a vampire soul could be.

When she was finished creating the shadow monster, she looked back at Amelia, wanting her approval of such a feat. What could she possibly say? It was a unique and yet dark talent. But in the end, Amelia knew that she could not break the heart of a child...even a vampire one. "It is beautiful Anna-Marie. You have far more talent than I." Amelia did not have a power worth boasting. Hers was only really helpful when she needed to walk in the sunlight. Otherwise, what other use was there for a second copy of herself? Not really that useful for a copy that could not touch or hold. "How did you realize you could bend shadows?"
