And then...
You make a character
And then...
You find ways to make money (Hint rat pelts are worth 6 Tria (the currency)). Rats are commonly found in sewers.
And then you make enough money to buy a sword, and then you kill more rats, and other things, and then you make more money which you use to train with NPCS, and then, and then, and then...
I suggest that you WALK around - not run for a few hours, click on the NPCS, and see what they train you in, see what they do. Explore buildings with open doors. Get to know the lay out of the town first.
Also, presently at the time of this post there is the Black Bug where you enter the Plaza and all is black except for characters and NPCs and in one direction you will see flames. If you wait long enough (One Game Hour - not a real hour) the light will come back and everything will be seen.
However, you can follow the flames to get to the temple. It is rarely a straight shot, you might have things to stumble around first. But once inside you can explore and see things until the in game hour is up.
As for the rest....
I don\'t know, I\'m still trying to find the mines
