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.

her eyes hold the apocalypse


Posted on October 15, 2015 by Tamzin Vandegrift
South
She's a natural in disaster
The silence after and before
We're the ones she's chasing after
She's coming back for more



Tamzin thought she was prepared for everything, but as was typical the universe threw her a curveball. All she wanted was to do her job, collect her money, and then move onto the next mark. That wasn't what fate or whatever higher power there was had in mind, instead it threw Serafina into her life all over again. In a weird way, Tamzin was glad for it, but that didn't make the battle within her any easier to fight. She knew that there was no easy solution to this problem, so for now she was going to put it aside and see what else the night had in store. Besides, she was with Serafina, and though she wouldn't admit it that filled her with a happiness she hadn't felt in a long time.

The Dark Hunter blushed as Sera confessed that she had missed her as well, and she felt herself only flush more when she felt those hands on her hips. A deep breath was drawn in then released shakily as she closed her eyes once again before they locked with her childhood friend. Once again that sweet and sincere smile appeared on her lips at Sera's comforting words and all she can do was nod her agreement. Slowly she felt her body relax a little more, but never completely as she moved with the music and Sera's hands. She was so focused on her own movements her brow rose in surprise and curiosity as the witch pressed her back to Tamzin's front. It was at that moment she finally felt herself truly relax and her movements became more fluid as her own hands slid around Sera the slightest bit.

"You forget, I never learned how to do that either."

She whispered and pressed her body closer to the tempting woman, it really did feel just like old times. The two were close, inseparable both physically and socially. Everyone always said they were attached at the hip, and Tamzin could still remember a couple nights when she was able to talk the other into staying at her place for a night or two. They would always share Tamzin's bed, never truly cuddling, but they were always touching. It was a comfort thing for them, they knew as long as they were together nothing could ever truly hurt them, because they were unbreakable. Those were fond memories, she did miss those days, but they were long gone. What was interesting though was that she felt that same comfort even after all these years and all the battling emotions within.

The alcohol had clearly done its job; Tamzin was a lot more relaxed and loose, almost unsafely so. That didn't matter right now though; all that mattered was that she was with Serafina again after all these years. Bright eyes fluttered open as she studied the younger woman for a few seconds before her arms slid tighter around her waist and she turned her head towards her neck the slightest bit. She still smelled familiar, herbal in a way, and she was glad to know that hadn't changed. With a smile she pulled back and glanced over at the bar where a male was now watching them with very animalistic intentions resting in his eyes. Her grip tightened on Sera's hip for a second as she motioned towards him nonchalantly before looking back to Sera.

"I think you're tempting someone, Kitten."

A laugh passed and she gripped Sera's hips and turned her so they were face-to-face once again. The look in Tamzin's eyes was a mix of adoration and confusion, but she blamed the alcohol for that part. She felt it working through her body and she felt her body heat shoot up a few degrees which made her flush more permanently. The music changed from something more sexual to something more playful and she laughed as she lifted her arms up in the air and let herself get lost in the music. Finally, she was where she wanted to be after this whole mess, so she decided she was going to enjoy it while it lasted. After all, once the alcohol wore off she would have to sit and make a more solid plan for finishing her job. That was a problem for the morning though, and until the sun rose she would let herself get lost in a feeling she hadn't had since she was a teenager. Desire.
