C-Rank Mission: Small Recon

LOCATION
the mountain pass used by traveling merchants

OBJECTIVE
Enter the mountain pass used by traveling merchants, investigate the reported activity, gather reliable intelligence, and return with the findings.

OPENING
Jasper, Jimhy, crow, Jasmine were summoned to the Adventurers Guild for a C-Rank Small Recon mission. The guild assigned the party to the mountain pass used by traveling merchants. Their orders were clear: Enter the mountain pass used by traveling merchants, investigate the reported activity, gather reliable intelligence, and return with the findings.

JOURNEY
The party departed from the guild and began the journey toward the mountain pass used by traveling merchants. The early portion of the mission was quiet, but the farther they traveled, the more obvious it became that the reports reaching the guild had not fully described the danger ahead.

MAIN CONFLICT
Deep inside the mountain pass used by traveling merchants, the party discovered that the guild's information had underestimated the threat. Enemies moved to block their advance and the adventurers were drawn into a difficult battle while attempting to keep the mission from collapsing.

CLIMAX
The final stage of the mission forced the party to make a difficult decision. Continuing to pursue every part of the objective would have placed the entire group in unnecessary danger.

RESOLUTION
Jasper, Jimhy, crow, Jasmine completed part of the objective, but circumstances prevented them from achieving everything the guild requested. The party withdrew with what they had accomplished rather than risk losing the entire team.

GUILD RETURN
Upon returning to the Adventurers Guild, the party delivered a complete report explaining what had occurred. The guild classified the mission as a partial success and recorded the unresolved portions of the assignment for future action.

REWARDS
The party received reduced experience for the partially completed C-Rank mission. Their guild records were updated to reflect the result.
