But the City of Brass would likely be Tier 5–9 or higher. It makes more sense for the type of story I would want to tell.

Short Answer: No
Long Answer: To fulfill a boon it needs to be done with a GM at a table.
Tell them "Be Patient"

in the mean time, that valuable boon is lost to anyone who has played the scenario, because it might be cheating to claim your character visited the City of Brass between events. by the time a scenario for the City of Brass comes out, the character has passed beyond the range.
there are a lot of boons on various sheets that are useless to use, for one reason or another.
on a similar tangent, we finished another scenario last night that has a "catch 22" boon on the sheet. unless you pay for information with an item worth 3000 or 6000 (depending on negotiations), you suffer the loss of all fame/prestige on your next scenario. i cant think of a sane group who would forfeit a powerful magic item for a smidge of information.
who makes this stuff?? they need to be flogged...
It sounds like things didn't go smoothly there. I hope the rest of the adventure was enjoyable.

I am currently having an argument with a couple of friends who have the above mentioned boon in the spoiler (I don't know how to spoiler tag). They say that since they don't see that that character will be able to fulfill the travel condition in that boon, they just want to say they had it done between adventures and claim the above spoiler mentioned reward.
I say that doing that is not legal and they have to wait and see if the fulfillment condition comes up in a future scenario.
Traveling to the City of Brass between adventures does not fulfill this condition. It's something they'll need to complete during an adventure in the City of Brass.

I would really like to see and adventure set in the City of Brass.
On the topic of boons.....I remember there were some boons that were written something like " once you have this boon any of your other characters have access to X." I think this is a great way to do boons because if you have played a character that has no use for the boon, but have another it would be perfect for, well, then your other character can use it.
This was very useful with a boon that granted access to spells not normally allowed. My rogue played through one of these scenarios, and my wizard benefited from it.
Perhaps some text like " this bounty can be passed to one of your other characters to claim" which would allow for your character to "level out" and still be able to collect the bounty.
Just an idea

Could be possible to pass on any unused boons to your venture-captain baby, if you wanted to? Your tutelage means that any favours left owed to you can be passed down.
