West
The western part of the city is often home to the poorer residents. Here there is a grunginess that permeates the town from the graffiti on the once cleaned brick buildings to the broken and unmaintained architecture. Crime runs high within the western half of town, making it the home of supernatural gangs of illicit activities. Such activities are rarely reported, however, and most residents are distrustful of individual's of authorities, and often let the powerful supernatural beings sort things out amongst themselves. Be careful wandering the Western streets after the sun falls.

Black Market
Just like any city - Sacrosanct is not without it's deep, dark underbelly. Hidden in the graffiti-ridden streets of the West, behind closed warehouse doors, lies the Black Market. Forever moving, it's nearly impossible to find without knowing someone who knows someone. Anything you desire can be brought for a hefty price within the Black Market - be it drugs, weapons, or lives.
What You'll Find Here
Cull & Pistol
Hidden within the dark alleyways of the Western Ward, Cull & Pistol is a dim, often smoky bar. With a small variety of bottled and craft beers, Cull & Pistol is a quaint little neighborhood joint. With its no-frills moto, the dingy bar offers little more than liquor, music from an old jukebox, and a few frequently occupied pool tables.
Bartender Raylin Chike
Noah's Ark
Resting upon the harbor, Noah's Ark (known simply as The Ark) is a sleek superyacht known both for its fight rings and recent...renovations, of sorts. Accessible from an entrance hidden in the shadows, The Ark is a veritable Were-playground that specializes in fighting tournaments for all creatures great and small. With both singles and doubles tournaments to compete in, the title of Ark Champion is hotly contested amongst the Were population. If anything illegal is going on in the city it's sure to be happening within the back rooms or behind the ring-side bar.
Note: This is a Were only establishment. All other species will be swiftly escorted out.

Syn
Within the turbulent industrial district lies this club. The warehouse doesn't look like much on the outside but it provides a memorable experience from the state of the art lighting, offbeat Victorian-inspired artwork, comfortable black leather lounges, and the infamous 'black light' room. There is a wide variety of alcohol that lines the shelves of both of the magical and ordinary variety. It is a common stomping ground for the supernatural who want to let loose and dance the night away to the music that floods the establishment. Humans are most welcome if they dare.

Sitting atop the countertop her eyes did not move along the pages. Rather she was focused on just staring at the page, hardly noticing what recipe she was on. Raven couldn't recall whether or not one of the boys told her about what sort of trek they were going to go on today. Was she not listening to them? It wasn't like her to ignore either one. Was today when they were going to go out for a few days on a business trip to get that new contract? It couldn't be, because she still had some of the paperwork in the green folder that was in Tetradore's 'in box' to review and sign. Maybe they were just having a guy's day and they forgot to tell her about it? Raven never wanted to hinder the two having a private time together. They were best friends and she didn't want to be in the middle of their friendship. It usually didn't bother her in the slightest when they would disappear together, but with their wedding date coming up she was starting to have those seeds of doubt. The lupine didn't doubt that they wouldn't last long. Although that didn't mean she didn't have doubts he would meet her at the alter. There was a small voice in the back of her mind gently whispering that he was abandoning her. She knew it was wrong and she growled in disagreement, and yet it continued.
It was the sound of footsteps falling on the tile that drew her away from those dark, suspicious thoughts. Blue-grey shifted upwards as she turned her head to see the older fae making his approach. She remembered him. He was...different. Wary of him she sat up a little bit straighter keeping her eyes on him. It wasn't that he would hurt her he was still just a stranger. A stranger that admitted to see her when she was young, and she had no recollection of him. As he settled himself against the countertop she blinked at his comment looking down at the recipe. It didn't look familiar. Gently she shut the cookbook and placed it in her lap. It would have been rude of her if she didn't give him her full undivided attention. Golden-brown curls would sway as she shook her head. With a heavy sigh she looked down at the front over of the cookbook, her thumb brushed some of the indented letters. Her voice was quite soft and cracked a little due to the fact she hardly spoke at all today.
It wasn't like he showed up every day to their humble little home. Besides he wasn't of any importance to her. Dorian wasn't here. Shouldn't he be off doing some sort of government official things? During her tea time with her friend he would speak a little bit about his Father and what he did. It sounded all quite interesting and the way Dorian described him made it sound like Matteo was a good man. However, Raven wouldn't deem the older fae as such, not unless she witnessed it for herself. That wasn't to say she thought he was an awful man. Perhaps it was her canine ways, but she was being overly cautious with this fellow. As he explained that her Alpha and mate wouldn't return in time for any sort of meal she frowned her worry for them only increased. They usually tried to make it to one of her meals. It's possible that wherever they went they would feed themselves whether they went out to get their own food or someone went out to get it for them.
She raised her cookbook up slightly to show him and then placed it on the countertop. It was good that they were both returning. Surely that would make the small voice in her head be quiet and any doubts she had cease to exist. Nervously she grabbed her fingers and gently pulled and tugged at them. They usually tell her when they are going somewhere or leave a note. That note Tobias left her didn't really count. They weren't the type to just up and leave. Last time Tetradore left the Ark without notice Frost had killed him. Saddened eyes would shift back to him. He could see the future, right? That's what Dorian had told her...he would know things right? But would he be willing to tell her? She would approach her question gently.
