"Yeah, there's no one with more experience than Tris..."
The Silver Adventurers showed little resistance to Tris volunteering to lead. The mix of relief and agreement on the faces of the usually rough adventurers suggested that Tris's reputation was strong enough to garner such unanimous approval.

He was an Apprentice 3rd Rank.

"I wouldn't dream of it."
