Pororin Forest locations involved
Pororin Forest lies southeast of Hernand Town in a dense, guarded woodland area east of Emberwind Workshop, featuring the hidden Pororin Village with Petalton Workshop on its central map point for arrow crafting and dye theft.
Plus, there’s the nearby Dyehouse in the village core for purchasing and applying yellow variants toward golden shades.
How to access Pororin Forest
Enter Pororin Forest three times deliberately to trigger Shai children shooting sleep darts, knocking you out each time at Outcast’s Hearth campsite.
After the third knockout, speak to Arkin, the Shai girl nearby with critters, to start “The Unreachable Village.” Once done, return to Poroin Forest for the dye.
How to find and steal Dark Yellow Dye
Equip a mask for safe stealing to avoid detection in the village.
Head to Petalton Workshop (central village house on map, herb processing spot also crafting arrows).
Enter the shop, interact with question mark items on shelves; steal a key first if visible, wait for crime timer to drop.
Steal the Dark Yellow Dye from the table next to the bookshelf.
Optionally steal “Accessories of the World” book nearby for extra knowledge.
Use the dye immediately to add to collection for gold mixing.
How to buy the Yellow Dye
Travel to Pororin Village Dyehouse right next to Petalton Workshop in the village center.
Interact with vendor Devin (cat-man merchant north side of main area).
Purchase standard Yellow Dye for 1.50.
This complements Dark Yellow for broader shade options.
How to dye your gear golden
Head to Pororin Dyehouse after obtaining both dyes.
Interact with dye station to access yellow palette (village-specific sets unlock here).
- Select Yellow Dye or Dark Yellow Dye shades; top row for base yellows.
- Apply to metallic material gear for gold effect (regular yellow on leather gives standard tones).
- Mix shades: Dark Yellow yields deeper gold, standard Yellow lighter; experiment 3rd-5th top row for richest golds.
Dye armor, weapons, mounts; changes persist post-application.
| Dye Type | Source | Cost/Method | Gold Potential |
|---|---|---|---|
| Yellow Dye | Devin at Dyehouse | 150 copper (buy) | Light gold on metallic |
| Dark Yellow Dye | Petalton Workshop shelf | Steal (free) | Deep, rich gold tones |
Unlocking Pororin’s yellows transforms basic gear into striking gold outfits, blending stealth theft with vendor buys for ultimate fashion control in Pywel.
