How to Solve the Tricky 'Monster in the Night' Quest in Fire Emblem Fortune's Weave

Polygon's guide reveals how to bypass misleading clues in Fire Emblem Fortune's Weave to easily complete the 'Monster in the Night' quest.

Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave is huge, but its quest design occasionally leads players on a frustrating goose chase. Take the 'Monster in the Night' side activity, which tasks you with stopping a creature terrorizing local market stalls after dark. Relying on the official quest log will send you straight into a waste of time, as the actual clues point toward completely the wrong location and time of day.

According to recent reporting from Polygon, the culprit actually strikes in the City Streets district northeast of the main marketplace, and it shows up strictly at dusk rather than the dead of night. To skip the guesswork and avoid burning valuable in-game turns wandering around, simply use the auto-activity feature at a local inn and set your schedule to end at 18:00. This trick lines up your arrival perfectly while netting you a nice bonus of extra gold or experience.

Once you arrive at the correct spot during the evening hours, you will trigger an event clash battle against a standard Demonic Beast. The fight is relatively straightforward since the creature lacks complex gimmicks or multiple health bars, but bringing a high-defense tank combined with a magic user will make quick work of its defenses. Defeating the beast nets you 1,500 gold and 100 renown, helping you stockpile resources for the tougher campaign chapters ahead.
