A signal? Jayden's eyebrows furrow briefly, exhaustion slowing him down in putting the pieces together, but then it clicks.

"Like a tracking device?"

It sounds outlandish not because it's a weird idea, but because it feels like a weird idea here, and it feels that way specially because it would've been something normal at home. It's almost jarringly familiar in the midst of a situation that is otherwise incredibly surreal.

It's also an entirely unexpected glimmer of hope, and he's so caught up for a moment in considering the situation and the possibilities that he doesn't initially register Blake's other question. The use of 'our' stands out to him as briefly interesting, but he doesn't comment on it other than to add a little clarification into his response.

"Scattered around, but it's not just Summoned, there's all kinds of people here." Jayden isn't sure if that's something the people who haven't been taken know or not, but it's entirely possible they don't. "This place isn't huge, but there's enough room people have spread out. There's a bit of paranoia going on."

Warranted paranoia, considering how long some have been trapped here and how limited supplies are, but still.
