So there are 13 children. Each child has 1 toad, 2 maggots, and 4 fleas. You add the child and multiply all of that by 13, and you get 104. Then you add 1 for Thaegan herself, and you add 1 for the bird in her stomach that doesn't digest.

However, realistically, the answer is in the billions; who's to know how many microscopic organisms are floating around?
