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.

Wake up to your dreams
And watch them come true



Izzy was giggly and delighted at having the woman's attention. She seemed fun and friendly so there was no reason in her child's mind to steer clear. The toddler happily followed Arya with her mom and Micah trailing beside. When they reached the relatively familiar children's area, Izzy made that beeline to the tidepool touching area. It was the favorite of all the children after all- being able to touch things was the best. The temperature of the water was always a shock though, you always forgot how cold the critters really liked it.

Nadya held Micah as he watched the starfish on Arya's hand inquisitively though seemed very non interested in trying it himself. His grip on his mother tightened as if afraid the starfish would get him. While her brother was unsure of the new critter hug, Izzy didn't even look in her kin's direction, her attention entirely glued on Arya and the starfish. "I want to." The small girl held out her hands palm up, not exactly understanding how to hold the starfish but she had always been told to hold things with two hands so this seemed appropriate. Nadya rolled her eyes good heartedly at her daughter but listened to Arya explain not just how she had come to the city but also what kind of Were she was. It honestly wasn't too surprising that the pair hadn't run into each other before despite the years spent living in Sacrosanct. Arya was an entirely different category of Were, near completely waterbound while Nadya's preferred the forest. Nadya also hadn't started wandering over to the beaches and aquarium until a few months ago when the twins became old enough.

Nadya shifted Micah on her hip, "I'm a jaguar, panther, and the twins are leguars technically- their father was a leopard." Although in curiosity one day she had looked up what the twins were called, she had never actually voiced it...and much less talked about their father. She spent so much time of the twins life as a single mother that it was odd to know in the back of her mind that he was roaming about in the same town still. Those thoughts were quickly shoved aside as she set Micah down despite his protests, "You're getting too heavy to be carried all the time." Nadya's attention returned to Arya once Micah had resorted to clinging to her legs instead. Since she had never seen a Wereseal or any other water based Were it was a curiosity. "Are there others like you that you know of? Do you have a pack?...or do you call it something different?" Nadya offered a small smile, "Sorry, I'm just...I've never met a seal before. Most of my acquaintances are land based predators like big cats and canines. My alpha is a horse though and the rest of us are predators which is an interesting turn of events."
