The first quest is a mix between a tutorial and an actual quest. You will learn how to use and navigate your game.
Although it is a big long tutorial, you won't regret doing it, because as a reward, you will gain a little Zeny, EXP, a Peco peco to mount (But only for 24 hours) and last but not least a poring pet. (Who will pick the items that monsters dropped automatically)
Every time a character has a exclamation mark on top of them, it means that they have a new quest for you. Quests will unlocked as you level up. If the character shows a question mark, that means you are currently making a quest and that the next step is talking to that character in particular. (Or, is the question mark is in a greyish color, it means you already spoke with him, but you haven't completed the quest.) But don't worry, you will get all these things as you go through this first quest.
1. Talking to Kafra:
Once you creted you character, you will appear in the center of the main city: Lan Forta.
On your right you will see a lovely lady called Kafra, she will help you start the quest.
In order to speak with a character (Or a.k.a NPC -for Non player character), you have to either click on them until a red circle appears around the character and then click the buttom with the smiling face (The goblin face) to open the dialog box. Or double click the button with the goblin face. (once for the red circle to appear and once for opening the dialog box).
Once you opened the dialog box, you will see this menu.
- Save service: is used to save the location you're currently on, so that if you die, you will restart there.

- Exit: This is for exit the dialog box
If you look at the image, you'll see down at the right corner, you'll find a big purple book with a "Q" on it. Every time you are doing a quest. That icon will appear in the dialog box of the characters involved in the quest.
When you click on the purple book,
