How to get to Florindale in Crimson Desert

Getting to Florindale in Crimson Desert is tricky: any time you try to approach either this or Pororin, you'll get sleep darted and dragged away by the Pororin Patrol. Even if you try sneaking in—like I did—and avoiding the floating flower basket sentries, you'll still get a dart and wake up at the Outcast's Hearth camp.

The way in involves completing a quest. Let yourself get sleep-darted three times. After this, a Shai girl called Arkin will appear near the Outcast's Hearth camp and you can speak to her to start the Unreachable Village quest. She asks you to retrieve something from the top of her friend's head, and in return, she'll give you access to the village.

Follow the map marker over towards The Ironwood in the east and enter Trembling Gorge, where you might spot a giant tree man walking around—you guessed it, this is Arkin's 'friend'. She'll elaborate that the Pororin Relic is stuck on top of this wandering tree man.
