"Good then please have the list ready for when this is over and do a headcount. For those who have left and have not come back, we will talk with their families and see what they wish to do." Blake did not want to make assumptions that someone was dead if they had gone out further from the base and would take time to get back. But if a certain amount of time passed and the person who left did not return then they could only assume they were dead.
Thus far, Blake had been lucky and had not lost a single person from his base due to scouting or for even just exiting the base to take a look around. The area around the base was fairly safe as the scouts, and everyone in the base were highly trained now after so long. Even the elderly could kill a few goblins at once if they needed to.
