Overview
The Unreachable Village is a faction quest tied to the Pororin Forest Guardians, part of the Trembling Woods quest line. The Shai, childlike forest spirits who protect the Pororin Forest south of Hernand, initially block entry to their village by firing tranquilizer darts at any intruders. After being darted multiple times, a Shai girl named Arkin appears and offers Kliff a way to earn the village's trust.
Objectives
Attempt to enter Pororin Forest (get darted by the Shai sentries)
Speak with Arkin, a Shai girl who appears near the forest edge
Meet Arkin at Trembling Gorge
Locate the giant walking tree (Ent) near the quest marker
Climb to the top of the Ent and retrieve the Relic of Pororin (the chief's hat)
Return the relic to Arkin
Walkthrough
When you first approach the Pororin Forest, the Pororin Patrol will sleep-dart you. Even sneaking past the floating flower basket sentries will result in getting darted, and you will wake up at the Outcast's Hearth camp. After a few failed attempts, Arkin will appear nearby on a tree stump.
Arkin explains that her people need their chief's hat recovered from a giant walking tree (an Ent). Travel to the quest marker to find the Ent wandering the area. Rather than trying to climb the Ent's legs directly, use nearby cliffs to gain elevation and glide onto the tree trunk. Use a lantern to spot the hat at the crown of the tree, then pick it up.
Return the Relic of Pororin to Arkin to complete the quest. This grants full access to Florindale Village and the Pororin area, including the dyehouse for equipment color customization and the Research Institute for recipes and gathering ability buffs.

Tips
The Ent is friendly and will not attack you. Simply climb on it to reach the top.
Gliding from a nearby cliff is the easiest way to land on the walking tree.
Unlocking the dyehouse here is one of the main ways to customize your equipment appearance.
