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.

If I Was Someone Else, Would This All Fall Apart?

There was something about Arlo that Killian just couldn't put his finger on. It wasn't that he was a vampire, but it was his personality. The way he talked and the way that he seemed to carry himself. It was all a curious thing to Killian.
But he couldn't help but softly chuckle at him. It was not a normal, everday event where you would come across some in a dark park that just so happened to be a vampire. Let alone hunting them... At least Killian thought he heard that right as he was processing everything over in his head, making sure he was hearing everything spoken and that he wasn't missing any details.



After all, it did pay for one to be attentive to all things when in the presence of another. Starting from the top of the list of the things Arlo had said.
"Well, I'm not one to judge. I can't expect many to remember every little aspect of what they learned. But I am Irish, and me homeland is called Ireland.. It's a beautiful country with lots of rolling green hills and many places to visit."
Killian would explain to Arlo in way that would make him feel less silly or awkweird, whatever feelings that Arlo was feelin of the semi-negative variant.


Crusnik: It most certainly was a foreign phrase to Killian for sure. Nor had he ever thought of that Vampires actually hunted each other the way Witches and Warlocks do for blood. The thought sent a sharp, and cold shiver up the spine of Killian.. The hatred he still had for that coven that killed his parents still burned brightly, and he still dreaded the day that he would have to come face to face with one of them... Or even all of them.
But that bridge wasn't entirely built, and he hoped that it wouldn't be, but if the time came to cross it, he would burn it where he stood.

His mind would fade off the topic of hate, and back to Arlo.He heard he had offered to walk him through the park so that he wouldn't be lost the next time around.
"I think I would like some form of escort around, so that I don't get jumped by some hooligan trying to drain me pockets or worse... Me blood that runs through my veins."
He explained to Arlo as he took a deep breath and smiled again, another soft chuckle escaping from his lips.
"I think you mean boyfriend... Because that's not my interest lad. But, I can't expect you know tha' upon first glance at me."
