It was at a tree stump next to the Golden Square that a lone Human Swashbuckler sat, waiting for something, or someone, to join him. A few days ago, he had put up posters advertising a need for members to form a party to take on the 「Windsor Castle Dungeon Raid」. Being the unsociable person that he was, he had not the vast number of contacts some of the more popular people like the Samurai Caerbannog had, so he had to resort to such measures to actually partake in a Raid himself.
The Golden Square was one of the many squares an Adventurer could hang out in, the damaged statue of a long forgotten person smack right in the middle. The ruined buildings in the square were likely still home to some of those who could not face their new reality and were huddled in one of the rooms, terrified, hungry, exhausted and most importantly, lonely, with no one to guide them out of the hole they had dug themselves in.
He had no idea why he had chosen such a place to meet the people who would be willing to follow him into the depths of the Windsor Castle to fight, nor had he any idea of the kinds of people who was going to show up.
He began to worry. What if a party of Shamans turned out? Or even worst, a party of Enchanters? He was not exactly 'well-known' in the city; he did not even know who would bother to come, or what levels they had, or even what kinds of people would come. He shuddered to think of having someone on the team who would backstab them at their weakest moment.
That said, the appointed time was in ten minutes. If anyone was coming, they would be likely to turn up soon, or not at all.
For a brief moment, he wondered what would happened if he did not have enough members. What would he do? Try to recruit lone people who may not even be willing to fight? That was the problem with simply putting up requests all over Londinium. You never knew what you might get, much like sticking your hand into a mystery bag and getting either the things you want or the things you didn't want. In this case, even if he got terrible team mates, he could not very well just ask them to leave. Especially if they had not enough manpower, or lacked a certain role.
If it were up to him, he'd want to have a relatively balanced team.
Given the size constraints on the party, the least he could ask for was a Healer, a Tank and a DPS, leaving the last role to be filled by either an extra one of those three roles or a Support class. It was those classes, and he could work with the people who showed up somewhat, then he supposed he just might be able to pull it off.
Dungeons were supposed to be much harder than normal areas, so he did not even know if he was ready for such a fight himself despite being at a level higher than the allotted range, which also meant that he would be forced to reduce his level to that of the maximum allowed, level 20.
