The Beast Tribe quests are pretty neat actually! But essentially each tribe was split into two factions: one that wanted to live peacefully and were not Tempered by the Primal their opposing faction summoned, and the second were the ones Tempered by their summoned god and were violent - kidnapping others to sacrifice to their god, blah blah blah blah blah.
Era's M.O. was always to make initial contact and learn about them - offered her services to help them in whatever way she could once she found out their problems. I think the Sylphs would be most relevant here, as they lived in harmony with the forest (the others were desert-dwellers, sea dwellers, bird people, other bird people in the sky, moogles, and crab-bug things). Era learned as much as she could of their culture and wanted their assistance with... idr - probably just for them to have peace with the local settlements - and they gave her more involved tasks the more she did for them to gain their trust. This always ended up with her crippling the violent factions. With the Sylphs in particular this meant rescuing their unhatched/bloomed (they're like floating cabbages so - plants lol) because the Sylphs themselves were incapable of doing so themselves.
It's been ages since I actually did the story lines but I guess the TL;DR is that she had a reason to go to the tribes needing something, would be open about what she was there for, and would offer to help them with any problems they might have in return for whatever it was she needed. It would take time and she'd always end up continuing to help long after she got what she needed from them, considering them her friends. In return she eventually became an honorary member of each Tribe she helped.
I know that if those Nom Tree things attacked a unicorn in their view, she (and Aymeric too ofc) would cull the crap out of the tree to rescue it. And then she would offer to heal it if it permitted her
Blah blah blah blah
Lots of honesty and desire to help and understand them, treating them as equals and not any old beasts.
I know I don't mind this being a long-term sort of thing, since Era kind of loves unicorns. And she definitely would not want to take anything from one without its express consent.
