@ Ox

You once remarked that it seems only certain assassins were summoned at each map, unless I misunderstood this.

Regardless, what I meant by my statement was, say Daud is going to the Slaughterhouse, he chooses 6 to 8 of his assassins ahead of time and says "Okay, be ready when I summon you." Perhaps there is a ritual involved or they have to be close by for him to do this. It's just supposition on my part.

But that way, specific assassins are ready and Daud has the means to summon them when needed. It wouldn't really do if this was just random; an assassin may be in the middle of a job and thus WHOOOSH! summoned away by Daud to fight for him.

Therefore, the likely case would be a form of preparedness with specific assassins in mind for the summonings, and he kinda 'knows' who is going to be summoned. This would help him get a better idea of who he has left to summon, and basically a tally of his 'resources available' if that makes sense.
