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.

That rich sound of laughter from the man beside her brought an altogether sly grin upon the mischievous kitten's features. She watched as his nose scrunched upwards, only for the man to declare in a wholly dramatic fashion that the self-righteous were the worst. Although Serafina agreed, it was the manner in which he quite near hit a pair of passing strangers that brought those infectious girlish giggles to the witch's lips. If only they could see their faces! "They didn't know what to do!" She declared, that glee perhaps too obvious as she glanced over her shoulder at the equally as loud men, her tongue sticking out at them in a playful fashion and yet, it surely awarded her with their attention as the pair of drunkards shouted back their own crude obscenities, only prompting a sly grin upon the wobbling woman's features. The weight of Christian's form on her saw her gait tarry, the girl nearly colliding into the building beside her as she quickly tried to right herself. "Oopsies." She muttered with a bemused grin. That distraction from the conversation at hand, however, was certainly fleeting as he inquired after the leader of that very army - one which she knew far less about then she had willingly admitted. Those giggles now fell from her lips far more readily than they often did when she was over sober mind - even now, as Christian declared himself invincible, Serafina found herself laughing at the sheer ridiculousness of the idea.

She took his hand within her own, insisting he was far from being Superman, even though Christian seemed to object to such an idea. A grin spread across her features as she looked up at him and yet, that consideration that had only just begun to creep across her mind was interrupted by the unanticipated reminder that drinks were necessary. Abruptly the girl shifted their pathway, tugging the man down a rather crowded alleyway. Though Serafina herself hardly tripped on those boxes, her usual waving did send her teetering dangerously around some of them. An audible yelp left her lips at the unexpected presence of a homeless man though Serafina was quick to pull Christian tumbling behind her as she dragged him purposefully towards the mesmerizing lights at the other end of the alleyway. The witch paused at the end of the alleyway, her finger pointing towards the bright neon lights that so lured them with the promise of a good time. "It is..." Those words of awe were softly uttered upon her lips before Christian stumbled forward, shouting after him. "Hey! Wait for me!" She called after him, her own gait certainly more of a sway than a straight line. The whole world felt blurry and yet...she felt....good....so good.

Serafina trailed after Christian as he entered the bar, her own gaze skirting around the establishment with little interest in either it's inhabitants or the place as a whole. After all - the only reason she was here was for Christian's pity party and what a party that was turning out to be! Her attention turned briefly towards her newfound friend's sudden declaration, only to stare at those two men blankly. "Shhhh, Christian, he's following them!" She informed him, though those visions of the undead flickered bizarrely across her vision, that alcohol that now ran rampant through her system so stealing all control of her affinities, suppressing them in ways she hadn't even anticipated, not that she terribly cared. Her nose wrinkled as she watched the men move towards the exit, the woman hardly bothered by them as she trailed after Christian, nearly collapsing into the chair next to him, causing it to slide slightly by her sudden weight closer towards his own. "A.....umm.....mart...ini...with vodka." Vodka had always been her weakness after all and after all those shots, she sought the comfort of her own favored beverage - even if there was a good chance she'd never even finish drinking it. Keeping up with Christian, after all, had near collided into her with a force that was near overwhelming for the young witch.
