Clearance in Genshin Impact is a mechanic that prevents players from exploring the Desert area without following the Genshin Impact World Quest. This gadget performs similarly to the Aranyaka, where players can check it from time to time and follow its guidance to complete the tasks in the Desert. To get the Scarlet Stone Slate, people must do the missions of the Golden Slumber quest. Eventually, the researcher Tirzad will ask the protagonist to hold on to it.

At the end of the Golden Slumber, the researcher entrusts the main character to keep the Slate. Later on, another scholar of Sumeru will visit Aaru Village, inspired by the papers done by Tirzad. He asks for Travelers’ assistance in his research, but he’s soon halted by an old man called Soheil. Soheil accuses both Tirzad and the protagonist of fraud, an insult that Paimon can’t accept. To prove Soheil wrong, Paimon asks the main character to continue exploring the Desert Ruins in Genshin Impact. In the journey, people will come across many remains of the old days, and in the process, gain some Clearance. By the end of the quest, Travelers will reach a place called Aaru.
