"It wasn't the reward that mattered or the recognition you might harvest. It was your depth of commitment, your quality of service, the product of your devotion -- these were the things that counted in a life. When you gave purely, the honor came in the giving, and that was honor enough."

Welcome!

Never been to Chi Town. Closest I ever got was a stay in Joliet for a job. Have you looked into an SCA or HEMA groups in your area? The Chicago Swordplay Guild is keen & your local SCA group is Here.
