Ready to challenge yourself and have an unforgettable day? As part of our “Cut Above the Rest” slogan for 2026, we are inviting you to the exciting Sword Experience at the one of a kind Humboldt Park —no experience needed!
THE SIGNAL AT THE WATER
There are places in every city where Watchers gathered when “The Signal” returned. Not to fight, and not to be seen—but to observe, to remember, and to ensure that what happened was never lost. They watched, carrying no weapons meant for battle. Only training blades. Not to change what they witnessed—but to protect the record, and each other, if the watch was ever threatened. When the watch passes from one circle to the next, someone new must step forward. Not everyone hears that signal. But those who do, always arrive and must face the tests that prove them worthy of the watch. Today, the Signal has returned. And a new test begins.
