- This article is about the town, for the region see Stornway (region), for the castle see Stornway Castle.
Stornway is a town in Dragon Quest IX.
It is one of the first towns visited by the Hero. It is home to the Quester's Rest inn and is generally considered the "central" location in the game, despite only being involved in the early plot. The region surrounding the town shares the name Stornway.
Much of Stornway's importance is related to the Quester's Rest inn. It makes Stornway the hub for changing party members, accessing multiplayer, and DQVC features of Dragon Quest IX. The town adds two additional shops after completing the main story of the game. In the post game, Stornway has many quests which are focused on its royal family, kingdom history, and characters in the Quester's Rest.
