Hello,
I will teach you how to use
keybindings. There are two ways
to do so. The first is to use the
keybinding window provided
with your client (see documentation
of client for additional help).
The second is to use the command
'bind <command>'. Your client
will then ask you to push the key
you want to associate with
<command>.

Some traps are dangerous, others are harmless.
To find a trap, use your trap finding skills by typing
------
use_skill find traps

You may need to disarm them,
so you can continue your way
fully secure. To disarm a trap,
use the command
but it is a lot easier to use the default "s" keybinding to find traps.
Some traps are hard to find, so you might want to search a number of times.
If you find a trap, disarm them so you can continue your way fully secure.
To disarm a trap, use the command
------
use_skill disarm traps
------
It is really useful to bind those
skills to keys, since they
are used a lot in the game.
If you don't know how to bind
a key, talk with Manu, 'the crazy
key binder' north from here.
Now, follow the black marbled
path and try to find traps around.
If at first you do not succeed, try, try again.
The "d" key is bound to the disarm command by default.
It is really useful to use keybindings for these actions since they are used a lot.
Now follow the black marbled path and try to find and disarm all the traps.
Are you confused yet?

So you are ready for the world
of crossfire? You will need to use
the knowledge you learned
in the tutorials to go outside.
There is no way back. You
can find beds to reality at Inns.
Never mind speaking with other
players. The commands shout, say
and tell are very useful. The
command chat is useful too, but you
have to be listening carefully to
hear it. So use the command
'listen 10' to do that.
After you do that, if you
get tired of all that noise use
'listen 9' to ignore it.
And don't forget the most useful
command:

then hold down the fire key and press the direction
