all those who wander are not lost *new user post*

I made a new account today after remembering this game existed! I played it for less than a month at least 6 years ago, and didn't have any idea what I was doing then. I can't say I'm doing any better now, either. I've heard your deer grows up after a few months, so until then you'll be a fawn. But how to customize or what to do in this strange world, I've no idea.
Without spoilers, I suppose, a couple tips to point me in the right direction of finding things would be cool. Like walking past the trees that puff blue mist and make sound- what's that mean?

Edit: everything makes a lot more sense now Smiling I can't wait to spend more time roaming and interacting with everyone <3

Of course I spend the day

Of course I spend the day looking for answers and only find them myself after I post lol
Seems like I just have to wait a month for things to happen for longer than 60 seconds, then. This also seems much more relaxed than I thought originally. This whole game is meant to be a safe space of sorts, from what I can gather? Neat

Hello! Yeah, you're right,

Hello! Yeah, you're right, it's a very relaxing game. There's not much you can do here, apart from exploring the forest or hanging out with other deer. To find out whom you're playing with, use the map and click the player's picto. It will take you to their account on this site if they have one.
Your fawn grows up in a month from when you first entered the forest. Then you'll be able to keep your set.
That sound and the blue mist when you're hitting a tree is nothing but an aestetic feature, just like the glowing ring of love that apprears when your character touches another deer.
Here you will find answers to some other questions you might have. Good luck and welcome to the forest!

Thank you for the info!

Thank you for the info! Unfortunately clicking on the pictogram on the map tells me that I'm not authorized to view the page, maybe because it hasn't been a month? Either way, I'm enjoying how relaxed it is
Edit- i saw your account and recognized you from the in game deer I can see right now! That's cool, I was noticing the unique mask earlier.
