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.

her eyes hold the apocalypse


Posted on November 10, 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



It had happened; Tamzin had given into the fun carefree spirit that Sera always seemed to give her. It was interesting really, the Dark Hunter was a lot more free spirited when she was younger, but she still had this tenseness about her. It was something that only Sera was able to make go away, but with her being gone for so many years it just built up inside of Tamzin. Maybe they needed each other; maybe this unaccomplished assignment was actually a blessing. It was these things that started swirling through her mind, and she wondered if it was the alcohol that did it to her. Either way, she knew that this hope was dangerous, but she was no longer able to push it away.

That sweet smile of hers still remained on her lips as she started moving towards the bar. She reached back and grabbed Sera's hand tightly before guiding her through the crowd, her defenses almost completely down at this point. Once she weaved their way out of the mass of dancing bodies she leaned against the bar. A slender finger reached up and tucked a stray hair behind her ear before moving up to check the status of her still tightly in place bun. Her hand then fell away from her hair and landed atop the bar. Two more drinks were placed before them and she grabbed Sera's before turning towards her with a mischievous smile now taking its place.

"To unexpected blasts from the past."

Tamzin lifted the shot glass before taking a long drink, the liquid burning its way down her throat just how she liked it. She turned towards the crowd and leaned against the bar, the alcohol had taken complete control of her mind by now. She was unable to hide how often she would glance over at Sera and study her. Hopefully her childhood friend didn't mind too much, because at this point Tamzin was good and drunk. Her teeth found her lower lip as her gaze shifted to Sera's lips before sliding back up to look into her eyes.

"Fuck it."

One hand shot out and grabbed Sera's neck firmly as she pulled her closer. A slight step forward was taken as her lips met Serafina's. She felt her heart begin to race as she nervously wondered if the kiss would be returned. After a few seconds her eyes shot open and went wide as she took a quick step back. Her hand shifted to rest on Sera's shoulder lightly as she bit down on her lower lip nervously. Bright blue eyes locked with her friend's, and her hand slowly slid back and she folded her arms over her chest. Tamzin wasn't sure what to think or feel about what she just did. Part of her wanted to try it again and see if she waited a little longer there would be a response while the other side of her screamed in frustration.

"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that. I think the alcohol has muddled my mind more than I thought."

~*~OOC: I don't really remember when exactly we said the kiss would happen, so I took the matter into my own hands. LoL. This isn't my best, but I didn't want to keep you waited than I already had. If you want me to add more or completely change it, please don't hesitate to say so.~*~
