Before Léon could reply to Jane, they were interrupted by a new arrival at their table.  "Oh? Looking for party members? What a coincidence, so am I!  What's the quest? I would love to join you both!" Maribel bluntly interjected.

Normally, Léon would have been slightly annoyed at this undiplomatic interruption, but it just so happened that Maribel was just the person he had in mind for this mission.  He didn't know her personally, but he knew of her; this towering woman was a Paladin of Mayon, and that even the most novice paladins were very capable and well-equipped warriors with an added bonus of a repertoire of divine magic.

"Well, this is quite Serendipitous," Léon said as he turned to the new arrival.  "Greetings, sister, my name is Léon Reverdin, a Cleric of Mayon from the Shrine of the Pierced Skull.  I'd heard a paladin of the Church had joined the Guild, and I was actually hoping that you'd be available to join us for this quest.  I think you'll find it a worthwhile cause for a fellow faithful of Mayon," he proclaimed as he gestured to the paper on the table."

With the three of them, they would be pretty solid in terms of healing, protective magic, and close combat.  Léon didn't expect for a monastery to have any traps or elaborate security, so a Coin didn't seem strictly necessary for this.  On the other hand, because they didn't know what sort of dangers awaited them, it'd be a good idea, he reasoned, to bring someone with skills and abilities that none of them had.  Perhaps an archer or a mage, someone who could deal death at long range, and perhaps recognize early signs of danger that the three of them would otherwise overlook.  Léon glanced out at the other adventurers, wondering who among them would be willing and available.

"Do either of you have any thoughts or concerns about this mission, or any ideas on who we ought to bring along as our fourth party member?" he asked the two ladies at the table.
