Direct Answer
Stillwell is unlocked through the Saturday Market expansion introduced in version 1.0. Once he joins the market, the board beside his stall opens a sequence of 12 monster-hunting Mission Quests. Update to v1.0.4 or later before diagnosing a frozen counter; that patch fixed defeated-monster tracking and missing target names.

Unlock route
- Reach the full-release Saturday Market progression. Stillwell belongs to the new market expansion rather than the original vendor group.
- Follow the Saturday Market Plaza quest objectives shown in your quest log. The primary launch notes confirm the feature but do not publish a complete prerequisite chain used by this guide.
- Complete the expansion until Stillwell joins the Saturday Market. His arrival is the confirmed service unlock.
- Interact with the Mission Board at his market setup. This is where Mission Quests become available.
How the Mission Board fits progression
Stillwell’s board adds a named quest source to the Saturday Market. That makes his unlock more than a vendor-count milestone: it opens a sequential set of Mission Quests connected to 1.0’s late-game content. The current community-maintained quest table lists 12 missions, each with a Mine monster target, 100 Renown and one Monster Set furniture recipe.
The official Steam achievement list also includes Hero, described as completing all of Stillwell’s Mission Quests. That confirms the board has a finite completion goal recognized by the achievement system, but it does not provide a safe basis for inventing individual mission requirements.
Historical v1.0.4 mission fix
If Stillwell is present but a mission still does not advance, confirm the installed build, the active mission and the exact target before escalating the issue. Do not delete quest data or edit a save to reproduce an older launch-build workaround.

- Stillwell and Zorel are both new Saturday Market additions, but their services are different.
- Stillwell’s confirmed feature is the Mission Board and its Mission Quests.
- Zorel handles Crystal Resonators and Song Crystals instead.
- The Good Marketing and Hold Your A Plaza achievements track additions to the market, while Hero specifically tracks Stillwell’s Mission Quests.
Common problems
- Looking for a conventional shop list: Stillwell’s highlighted service is a Mission Board rather than Zorel’s item shop.
- The objective says “MISSING” or defeats do not count: update to v1.0.4 or later, then retest the active target.
- Confusing Mission Quests with the ordinary Request Board: the update gives Stillwell’s board and quests their own names.
- Assuming an unconfirmed relationship role: use Stillwell’s documented market and mission function as the reliable scope.
