Frontier Village (Japanese: サイハテ村, Saihate mura, lit. farthest-land village) is the sole Nopon settlement in Xenoblade Chronicles. It is set inside a very large tree, said to be the oldest in the area, in the middle of Makna Forest, which the Nopon have inhabited.

Story

Frontier Village Entry

After meeting up with Melia, the group (by this point comprising of Shulk, Dunban, Reyn and Sharla) enter Frontier Village. Melia requests to speak with the village Chief, Chief Dunga.

Dunga is an old friend of Melia's and queries about her quest in the region. After a brief argument with Shulk and friends, Melia storms off.

Later, Melia is found at the topmost area of Frontier Village. She continues to insist she needs no help defeating and slaying the Telethia that has escaped from the Northern regions. Chief Dunga suggests she accept the help from her new friends, to which Melia reluctantly agrees.

Frontier Village

Chief Dunga then requests that their finest warrior go with the group to help ensure their safety. When the group arrive at the Sacred Altar, Chief Dunga introduces the smallest yet most confident member of the group... Riki who accompanies the party to battle the Telethia.

After defeating the Leone Telethia the group is conducted to the Apex Lake and transported to the Eryth Sea.

Trivia

• The first part of the Japanese name, サイハテ (saihate), is a katakana transliteration of 最果て, "the farthest land".
• In Chapter 10 of Xenoblade Chronicles X, Tatsu references the "legendary" Frontier Village as a comparison to the sheer size of Zu Pharg.
