Just to be clear, any "winnings" you earn in this way -while nice details for storytelling- doesn't count toward anything monetary as far as the RP currencies go; like claiming it as Ryo then trying to buy an artifact at the marketplace. This sounds like an obvious statement, but I just wanted to be sure this was understood without a shadow of a doubt.

Mission was downgraded to D-rank. Although B ranks are not as demanding as the higher ranks, they still require a certain level of content to pass, though this is way too short for even that criteria. If you would like some advice for similar elements in the future, perhaps spend more time on the developmental aspect of the conflict; explore the situation in a way that exemplifies more a scouting and preparative process that eventually leads into the discovery and crossing paths with the opposition. With even just that much more detail, this would have been solid. Very good writing, just need to be more willing to explore the scenario rather than feel in a rush to conclude it.

Mission was downgraded to B-rank. I read this twice, and though the content is good, it felt like it just missed the mark when it comes to A rank missions. The challenge (or lack-there-of) didn't show to be enough, as all that was really present here was an investigative process that ultimately amounted to no real conflict of any kind. If you'd like a recommendation, consider including more of a "avoid being seen" aspect in the future to elements like this, maybe even have instances in which you had to eliminate threat(s) that would have caused your position to be compromised if you hadn't engaged them to stop that from happening. These sorts of things would have made a huge difference toward your grading in helping show more of a process that is exemplified by A-rank standards.

While a good read, it was a bit on the shorter side in the conflict. Though the way the combat was portrayed was done quite well thus allowing it to keep its rank, in the future please pay a little more mind to the scope of your mission and what attention you are paying to certain aspects throughout.

Mission was downgraded to A-rank. The first 1/3rd of the content present is quite a lot of buildup leading into the actual conflict of the mission itself, which extends well beyond the ratio expected of an S-rank. While you did include "heal yourself" in the context of your element chosen, the way it is written implies that you do this amidst the danger of the void, but in fact takes place before any danger is made present, which makes it introductive/buildup in nature. Simultaneously, the approach to conflict that was present wasn't of the danger level of an S-rank qualification. Often times you describe the conflict as "perils" and "looming threats," but for the most part, much of the conflict was handedly managed, by your solo clone no less, frequently overcome in the same paragraph that it was introduced. Length wise, S ranks should be a bit longer as well, though this is a minor conflict in comparison to the approach of what is present. If you would like a recommendation for future approaches, consider expanding upon the trial and error process of your defenses and counter-offenses. Imagine a possibility wherein your opponent can dodge or all together overpower you in certain circumstances, forcing you to reevaluate your position and rethink your approach.

RIP Tsumigakure.
Also, as a side-note, you had placed your mission rank at C-rank, which is both inconsistent with the numerical value you've assigned the storyboard element "(3)" and the rank in which these missions are supposed to be in order to acquire the materials for your God-Slaying Tool, as per given by Imperfect. I've graded this mission with the value of B-rank in mind and went ahead with adjusting the scale of the rank up to B to reflect that. I'm assuming that this was a typo, so I've corrected it in hindsight of the original value posted. If you have any questions or concerns about this, please don't hesitate to reach out to me either here on-site or on discord.

Just something I want to point out, the pacing of this mission was rather a stretch, both factoring in the element chosen and the rank its fixed at. B-ranks are not inherently meant to be "difficult," but neither are they supposed to be simple, requiring a bit more of an explanative process that showcases how exactly you complete your task, despite whatever resistance you might have faced, which is what sets them apart from C or even D-ranks. The majority of this mission could have been summarized into more of an element that reads "learn more about the local regions" or "make a trade with a local," rather than "find and gather ore." By and large, these GST questline missions are left open to quite a bit of creative freedom for the participants so as to avoid unwanted repetition when it comes to the "how" they gather the ore. With that said, the method you chose to approach this isn't inherently wrong, which is why it hasn't landed a failure or a downgrade, but the spread of the content is where lies the conflict. You spent a lot of time "chit-chatting" with the merchant, with no real indication of direction for what you would get out of it other than information, and then you "just happened" to get a chunk of ore out of the exchange by the end of it. In the future, try to consider the rank you're writing at and what the depth of your element might expect. Was the element "talk with a merchant and learn something, then conveniently get a valuable reward" or was it "find and gather ore," suggesting that from paragraph one, your motivation in everything you do throughout your writing is aimed toward the acquisition of said material? You could have made an educated guess that the weaponry the merchant forged was in fact made out of the metal you were after, then pressed them to trade some of the raw material much earlier on in the writing, tying it all together to make sense that it was your pursuit the whole time, rather than it just "coincidentally" coming into your possession by the end of the interaction, by the sheer whim of the NPC.
