A Thief in the Night is a side quest in Hogwarts Legacy. It is received from Pádraic Haggarty, a merchant in Irondale.

Objectives[]

"The vendor in Irondale seems to be upset about something. I should introduce myself and see what the matter is."

  • Speak with the Irondale vendor

"Since the thief comes at night, I should check around Irondale for clues."

  • Look for clues at the scene

"I found a trail of gold coins leading just outside the hamlet. It looks like the thief took more than they could carry. I should follow the trail."

  • Follow the trail of coins

"The trail of coins led me to a Niffler Den. I should capture this Niffler as proof. But where is the Haggarty family heirloom?"

  • Capture the thief

"I caught the culprit, a wily Niffler with a keen sense for valuables. Now to return to Mr Haggarty to show him that it was not Catrin who was thieving after all."

  • Return to Pádraic Haggarty

Conclusion[]

"While visiting Irondale, I met a man named Pádraic Haggarty who told me of a recent string of burglaries in Irondale and that among the stolen items was a family heirloom of his. This distressed him, as his sister Catrin had recently run off to join Rookwood and he suspects she is the thief. I agreed to help him find the burglar. Following the clues led me not to Rookwood but to a Niffler den."

If you found the heirloom
"I captured the sticky-fingered Niffler, recovered the heirloom, and brought them both back to show Mr Haggarty. He was relieved to know his sister wasn't the thief and grateful to be reunited with his heirloom. I think this will finally give him closure."
If you didn't find the heirloom
"I captured the sticky-fingered Niffler, although I wasn't able to find the missing heirloom. When I showed the Niffler to Mr Haggarty, he was relieved to know his sister wasn't the thief. Even though he wasn't reunited with his heirloom, I think he was still somewhat satisfied."

Rewards[]

Notes[]

  • Capturing the Irondale Pilferer can count towards the Rescue Beasts challenge.
  • The heirloom is on the rocks above the Niffler Den.
