# Importance

Set how important this asset is to the story. High values indicate assets central to plot progression or emotional significance. Low values indicate minor or background assets.

For example, `10` might fit Beth's Memory Tin if it carries major emotional and plot weight. `2` might fit a background pub menu unless it later becomes evidence.
