Overview

The Night Market is a valuable trade hub for all manner of goods both worldly and Daedric. It is a section within Fargrave's interplanar bazaar that only opens for a short time, where rival factions vie for control and enlist the aid of travelers.

While the Night Market is active you may travel there and learn about the different factions, join one for the duration, and complete a variety of quests and activities to grow your faction's favor. Earn faction unique rewards as you ascend the ranks.
Overview

Night Market Access

To enter the Night Market, use the Starlit Plaza Wayshrine or travel to Fargrave and find The Curator within the Shambles. This mysterious figure will guide you through a portal which takes you into the Starlit Plaza at the heart of the Night Market. You may also begin the Night Market event via the Crown Store under Quest Starters > Events and select the quest called "Those Who Would Rule".

Factions and Patrons

There are three competing factions vying for recognition in Night Market, each with a different patron in charge, each hoping to prove that their members have what it takes to succeed in the dangerous market districts.

The Ruckus are a faction of mortals who recently rose to prominence. They're scrappy underdogs who respect strength and seek to disrupt the Daedric supremacy of the market. The imposing Senche-raht Kharakhal Moon-Eye is their patron, and rules over the Ruckus with an iron fist. He rose through the ranks of the Ruckus through strength, determination, and a small side of murder. He recruits those with outward strength and maintains control through force of will.

The Thousand Eyes is a faction nearly as old as the Night Market itself. It is comprised of the small, the skittering, the insignificant but in those numbers, great power. They banded together to blunt the strength of other factions by seeking knowledge in the crevices and information in overheard conversations. Their patron Molto the Whisperer, is a small Daedrat who lives among the unwashed denizens of the market. Melandir is a shy Maormer who translates Molto's wishes to anyone seeking an audience with the venerable Daedrat.

The Glittering Goad gets its name from the amassed wealth of the faction. They are a meritocracy, believing anyone has a chance to make it big in the Night Market, provided they pay for the privilege. Their patron Tachien, is a Dremora of lavish tastes who prefers to rest on her throne and bask in the glory of the celebration she organized. She's invested in the goings-on of the Night Market, but oversees far too much to journey into the districts herself.

Choosing a Faction

After speaking with the 3 patrons, you may choose a faction to join. This choice will be account-wide and you are unable to change your faction for the duration of the event. You may join a different faction only once the Night Market re-emerges and a new season begins.

Each faction will offer different daily quests and events, which you may complete to earn favor with your faction. Growing your faction's favor yields greater rewards.

Events

The Night Market has a variety of repeatable events and challenges that earn you favor with your chosen faction:

• Daily quests offered by faction patrons.
• Repeatable discoverable quests in the districts.
• Boss fights that escalate in rating and difficulty.
• Rare monsters and calamitous wandering bosses to look out for.
• Skirmish events in the districts.
• Daring Races, where you race through checkpoints while avoiding danger.
• Oddities, puzzles that often require the aid of others to solve.

Faction Favor

Completing quests and events in the Night Market earns you Favor with your faction. You can view your current favor while in the Night Market by pressing F5 to show the faction screen.

The more faction favor you gain, the better the rewards are available for purchase at each faction vendor. You can find the faction vendors in the Starlit Plaza, marked on the map by the Faction Vendor Icon

Relics

Within the Night Market you may occasionally come across Relic Splinters. These can be collected until you amass 10 splinters of a specific relic. After you collect 10 splinters, you will receive a completed Relic. Each relic unlocks a permanent effect that allows you to reach previously inaccessible areas within each district.

You can also place completed relics in your house within the Night Market to unlock new wings of the Night's Den house.
