The Sword of Night is a unique Katana introduced in the Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree DLC. Wielded by Jolan, the weapon is exceptionally good-looking and features a flashy and powerful Ash of War. Here's where to find the Sword of Night and how to get it.
Shadow of the Erdtree Sword of Night Build – How to Build a Void Knight (Elden Ring Build)
The Sword of Night can be found in the Cathedral of Manus Metyr and is given to you by Jolan. However, there are conditions that need to be met in order for this to happen, and you will need to complete both Count Ymir’s quest and have an Iris of Occultation. Since we’ve already covered the lengthy quest in a separate guide that you should check out, here we’ll look at exactly what you need to do to obtain the Sword of Night itself after completing the quest in Elden Ring.
After completing Count Ymir's quest, Jolan will be lying on the ground, leaning against the same pillar as before. You must exhaust her dialogue and be prompted to give her an Iris of Occultation or Iris of Grace. To get the Sword of Night, you must let Jolan die by giving her an Iris of Occultation. The other option gives Jolan a Spirit Ash, which when upgraded also adds Anna to the summon.
The Iris of Occultation can be found in the Shadow Keep, specifically in the Church District. You can find one near the Shadow Keep, Church District Grace, and another if you drain the water from the area and go down to the Sunken Chapel. There you'll fight an Ulcerated Tree Spirit, who will drop the Iris if you defeat it. Don't exhaust Jolan's dialogue if you don't have one handy just to be safe.
