In all actuality, he didn't know, but nodded anyway. He had the vague inkling she meant the Card Ranks, and the importance of Challenges, something Jake knew the Deck-born took very seriously.
He didn't believe it a bad thing that Eileen wanted to Challenge--everyone here did--but he still couldn't shake the memory of her face during, seeing how she held those knives...it gave him the uneasies.
"...guess not." He only spoke because she expected it, sensing she needed a bit of help in the words department just now. He'd do his best. Then he surprised himself by asking suddenly, "--why knives?"
