pg. 8 lists Gravely Zane as a Precentor VII, while pg. 9 lists Gravely Zane as Precentor VIII which both conflict, but neither seem correct.
Per the ComStar sourcebook and Field Manual: ComStar, save for extreme circumstances ranks increase increments of one for each year at that rank. ComStar pg 85 lists Zane as a Precentor I in 3055, Field Manual: ComStar pg. 39 lists him as Precentor VIII in 3062 and Precentor XIII as of 3067 in Field Manual: Upgrade pg. 98 which points to a standard progress and that Zane should likely be at most a Precentor V in 3059.
