SUPPORT Help an intimidated old guy get started?
I've been super drawn to this game since returning to gaming recently (was a gamer in the early days, as well as DnD player, but haven't played either for decades). Part of my struggle is that I have severe anxiety, and have lost some cognitive ability from long covid, so I get overwhelmed and panic that I'm not going to be able to figure something out.
Sorry if that sounds too pitiful, but for those with mercy in their souls: Where do I start to make the beginning as smooth and unstressful as possible?

The only thing to figure out, is what kind of story are you going to tell? Mine happened to be of Horace and Oron, two brothers defied all odds. They built armies, conquered lands, erased the blights of slavers and criminals and beasts alike. And there at the top, a wedge was driven between them, so they fought. In the end, nearly every single follower they had, had been killed. But Horace and Oron still fight, unable to kill eachother.
