A lamp that summons nightfall when lit.[1]

Found in the Whealbrook Adit after revisiting during the second generation.

Dragon Quest VII: Fragments of the Forgotten Past[edit]

Won from first completion of the DLC Tablet "Den of the Wintry Wyrm" after defeating the Blue dragon in the Nintendo 3DS Version only. As the game lacks the day/night cycle, the function of the night light is to replicate the rarely-seen Snub spell to nullify all magic for the rest of the battle for both the party and enemies.
