"Everyone ready?" Mathew asked, turning his head over his shoulder and casting a quick glance at his team.
There were only five of them in total. A pretty small number for an expedition that had several objectives on the to-do list, all of which required a long-distance trip.
"We are ready," Nadia replied, taking a step forward and nodding her head as she spoke for all three of Mathew's wives that participated.
"I'm ready," Norbert reported, nodding his head.
Counting Mathew, five of them. A skeletal crew if there was any way to call them.
But all the disadvantages of lacking numbers were counteracted by the individual strength of the participants. And the two advantages of their small number, their mobility and their ability to sneak around, made this kind of arrangement pretty favorable.
