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 weather was great for surfing today. There was a good, strong wind that brought the tide in. The waves were taller than usually, crashing against the sandbar with a thundering rhythm. Ashton had been at the beach since dawn, riding the waves all day for as long as he could. It was beginning to inch closer to lunch time, so Ashton decided to come in for a bit and make himself a sandwich. If he was going to be surfing all day, he needed to keep up his strength.

Carrying his board, he walked towards his umbrella. Once there, he planted the bird firmly in the sand, careful to make sure the wind wouldn't pick it up and carry it away. Grabbing his towel, he took a moment to dry off most the water. As much as he loved the beach, he hated the sand. It was gritty and got every where.

As he tossed his towel over the back of his beach chair, he looked up to see a woman sitting in the sand, curled up into a tight little ball. At first, he found it odd, but the longer he looked, he realized that he knew the person. Malia had talked of her often, and even mentioned her disappearing for a little while. Had she come back? Even from where he was standing she looked terrible. Thin, sickly, and starting to burn.

He grabbed his sunblock and his cooler and started up the beach towards her. He wasn't that far from her, really. Once he got a little closer, he offered her his charming southern smile. "You look a little worse for wear. Here, have a sandwich. Turkey or ham?" His accent was thick and southern. Most people found it attractive next to his attractive physique. Him in his bright red swim trunks was just about as naked as he had ever been in front of others. While it made him uncomfortable, he was beginning to get to used to the attention.

Without waiting for her answer, he tossed her some sunblock. "Put some of that on. You're going to burn." He offered her a smile as he began to assemble the sandwich. He had it all ready before he looked up at her. "Did you decide on turkey or ham? I regret that no thank you is not a phrase in my vocabulary." He smiled. "It's good to see you back." He had no idea that she was struggling with her memory, that she might not remember who he was. They had only met once or twice when Malia had him over. He just assumed she was being quiet today...not the fact that she was probably trying to sort out which way was up.
