Welcome young bard!

Those are your songs. To make a song work, it is a 2 step process. First
you scribe the song to your spell book. You only have to do this one time.
To use a song, you need to memorize it so that it appears on the left side
of your screen as an icon you can click on. You have to do this each time
you die and need to re-learn your songs. So don't die! When you have it
scribes and memorized you can click on it and you will be 'singing' that
song and the power that it gives you will happen.

Selos Accellarando will make you feet move faster. You will be able to run
really fast.

Other songs have other powers, like better ability to fight, able to heal up
faster and other specail powers - read the manual and try things. Also go to
the great bard web sites and read up. http://wwwharpers.net/bard
<http://wwwharpers.com/bard>

Bards powers will affect everyone in their party. Some bard songs are
enhanced if you play an instrument while you sing. The first instrument to
get is a drum. Sing Selos song & play (remove your weapons and put the drum
in your 2nd melee slot) and you will run faster than anyone else - including
the monsters.

At your age - you should use chant of battle when fighting and hymn of
restoration for healing. And next level 5 you can get Selos for running and
traveling. The level 2 song - chords is harder to use and you will find that
if you use it near guards they don't like it in a big way! (They will think
you are attacking them and attack you back.) So if you don't have Chords of
Dissonance - don't worry - you can buy it later on when you know how to use
it better. But buy the Lyssa Locating song (4) for finding corpses and the
Hymn of Restoration (6) for healing and Selos (3) for running. The chords
(2) and Jig (3) you can get later when you feel you really need them.

Have fun!
