7 vs. 51 

With Minos' confidence, his six companions moved forward, prepared to deal with the opponents. 

As they flew quickly north again, it would take the seven of them 20 minutes to cross all the space between their previous position and where the 51 enemies spotted by the group's observer a few moments ago were.

As Minos' team approached their opponents, those 51 aliens, who, in fact, as Minos imagined, were there for them, prepared themselves for the fight about to take place.

"Minos Stuart is coming! Get ready!" shouted the overall leader of those aliens, an alliance of three groups that had come together to fight Minos' forces.

How did they know Minos' name and where they would be? It was because of a seer. Thirteen years ago, one of the most prominent members of one of the three groups forming this alliance had predicted his own death for Minos.
