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.

South



This was not exactly his proudest moment. Scrabbling for change on the road by the side of a food truck. Maybe one day he'd look back on this moment and laugh and yet- Sly was almost distinctly certain that he was largely destined to spend the rest of his life in situations dramatically akin to this. Maybe he was feeling a little more...bitter about the world today then he usually was. His often sarcastic nature inclined to press itself to the forefront of his often aloof temperament as his gaze rose to abruptly meet the tired, bloodshot eyes of a young woman. His efforts to collect that change had apparently captured her attention and yet, unlike the rest of those people in line (who surely refused to make eye contact with him for fear he was, in fact, insane), the young woman seemed inclined to merely raise a singular, sculpted brow in dubious consideration of his existence. Sly's near biting remark was met with her own casual retort. The warlock returned to collecting his change as the young woman's gaze fixated back upon the line ahead. It was almost....instinctive, that very electricity that seemed to dance across the blond's skin in response to the woman's presence. That warning seemed to jolt his gaze upward once more. A hunter. She was a hunter. Christ. It had been years since he'd seen one- and he'd gone and snapped at this one. Just what he needed. To get shot dead beside the food truck.

Sly grasped for the last of that change before tucking those crumpled bills and coins into his back pocket. His blue gaze shifted briefly from the young woman, to another food truck and back again. Maybe it wouldn't hurt to offer her some....insider assistance. After all, he'd been working in this market for several years now. He knew the food trucks, their owners, who ran an honest trade and who sold week old salad at full price or hid sub-par meat beneath lashings of ranch dressing or ketchup and aioli. Maybe in exchange for a little information she might be inclined to....forget his existence- or at least not attempt to hunt him down later. Sly's hand lifted to gesture across the road and toward a second food truck. One far less popular than the one they both stood beside and yet that was only because it was new and yet to build up the following the original truck had. It wouldn't take long, Sly was certain, before the customers realised that the newer truck was superior. What was wrong with giving the Hunter some decent advice?

The young woman's gaze narrowed upon him skeptically as her arms folded across her chest in a clear contemplation of his offered advice. Her own words, when they came, were laced with sarcasm. Hmmm. It was almost....pleasing to meet someone who appreciated the sarcasm of life. Sly so daring to allow the faintest hint of amusement to trace his lips at her quip before he nodded. Was he the food truck witch?

"As it happens. I am. I've been working at this job for two years now. I know every food truck here along with what they sell. Believe me, that one over there is better-."

Sly nodded toward the newer truck once more. His blue gaze shifted to meet the young woman's again as he spoke. His distinctly European accent became all the more prominent.

"As for burrito faeries though- the Fae are a dying species. If one is dumb enough to stand in public selling buritos I doubt hes going to survive long enough for me to judge his food."

His shoulders rose in a loose shrug that very nearly invited his new companion to argue that logic. The woman, for her part, seemed content to continue to consider her choices before boldly stepping out of line with the insistence that Sly owed her that burrito if it was bad. Nother lopsided grin tugged loosely at the warlock's features as he moved to fall into step beside the Hunter. The pair made their way to that superior food truck.

"Sure. If it's bad and they accept nickels and dimes as payment, I'll buy it for you. I'm not wrong though. Trust me."

Sly shifted to stand beside that new food truck as the Hunter woman moved to the front of the much smaller que to place her order. That promised breakfast burrito delivered within a few short minutes.

"Well, verdict?"

sly.
