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 rubbed absently at the new scar on her ear as she walked toward the outskirts of town. It was a nice reminder of her first victory at the Ark, against a lion, no less. She felt like a conqueror. Sure, she could have gotten the wound healed by a witch and she wouldn't have a scar but then all she'd have is a memory of what it felt like. No, she didn't mind a scar here and there, especially from a good fight. She'd have to do that again some time. And Tetradore still owed her a fight too, even if it meant she had to sneak up on the alpha and make him fight her. She didn't want his pack or title. She just wanted bragging rights for kicking his ass. Was that too much to ask? She smirked at the thought alone.

She walked easily into the woods, knowing her way around here like the back of her hand. She followed the trail to her usual tree and stripped down, bundling her clothes at the foot of the tree out of the line of sight of the sidewalk so no humans would get curious. Then she let out her breath and closed her ears, concentrating until she felt the familiar crackle of her bones shifting. Fur sprouted from her skin and her face elongated, fangs growing from her humans. She shook out her coat, her tongue already lolling out as she turned and darted further into the woods. What to get into first? She could hunt something or just run for the fun of it. She could chase some birds or look for other Were's. What to do? As if in answer to her question, a rabbit hobbled by. It looked like it was already injured, the leg maybe? Then a larger shadow showed up around the tree line, obviously stalking the prey. Curling her lip in a grin, she wiggled her butt as she leaned back on her hindquarters. Cooling herself like a spring, she pounded forward, letting out a laughing yip as she landed right between the rabbit and the shadow. The rabbit spooked and took off, leaving her with whoever was hunting the rabbit. She wagged her tail, waiting to see just what and who she'd managed to piss off.
