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 places a high focus both upon educating future generations but also on research to help revolutionize the world.

butterflies and flowers and more

She didn't know about Abigail's background. Everyone else seemed to have grown up so differently from her. It never would have occured to Malia though that even growing up with a human half that someone would choose to be outside in the woods. Well, that's a lie. Even though she had Frost's house to live in and all the comforts that come with it, she herself still chose to go hunting in the woods at night and such, just to remind herself of who she truly was. Abigail looked so excited about pouncing on someone. The idea made Malia make a yipping sound like a laugh. Then Abigail asked if they could find one of Malia's friends to pounce on if they couldn't find butterflies. The idea made Malia's lip twitch with humor as she nodded. "Of course! What fun that would be." Her eyes danced at the idea of both of them pouncing on Frost or Henry. The idea was laughable. Abigail seemed to agree that between the two of them, they should be able to get any butterfly that got in their path.

Malia then asked her about flowers cause she knew that's usually when she saw butterflies. Abigail grew thoughtful, trying to think of where she might have seen some. Then she said her butterflies were going that way and turned to head toward the North. Malia nodded and turned with her, ready to follow right with her. "Right. Then let's get them." She offered even for Abigail to ride on her. Usually the idea would disgust her since she hated the idea of being anyone's pet but Abigail was just a cute little WerePanda or something and somehow that made it okay. Plus she knew Abigail certainly couldn't get anywhere very fast on those fluffy little legs so it only made sense. Otherwise she'd be walking slow for a long time to reach their destination. Abigail seemed to like the idea. She came bumbling over and reached for Malia's side, telling her to get down lower. Malia smiled and lowered herself fully to the ground, lying on her stomach so Abigail could get on her back. "Let me know when you're settled. Then we're off."

She was thankful Abigail wasn't trying to claw her up or anything trying to get up on her back.
