Skraeling counting started out as barbarian schtick and morphed into in-group jargon-ish usage; in practice, "more than two" translates to anywhere from "a few" to "a handful" ("I'm pretendingI can't count past two"), and "many" translates roughly to, "A bunch, too many to bother tallying up right this moment". "Run away!" can mean literally "too many", or "a lot; enough that if we were to give a number it'd be a round number and not an exact count".

So basically both you and ckd came up with interpretations of the counting consistent with my expectations.

I welcome corrections to this explanation from actual (or former) Skraelings who happen to read this.
