During a family dinner, Tris learns more about the tense political landscape, notably the rising influence of Erudite. At the ceremony, while Caleb chooses to join Erudite, Tris takes the bold step of selecting Dauntless, sparking her journey into a life characterized by bravery and danger.

The Dauntless Initaiton

Tris quickly adapts to Dauntless life, marked by rigorous physical and mental training. She forms friendships with fellow initiates Christina, Al, and Will, but faces challenges as she struggles to meet Dauntless standards. After an initial setback, mentorship from Four, her instructor—who later reveals his identity as Tobias Eaton—encourages Tris to flourish in her new life.
