01 / THE GUIDE
musical spellcasting
Songs act as spells that let you speak to trees, enchant tools, or raise earth to clear obstacles. The description links each melody to a specific magical effect, making music the primary means of interaction.
Your flute and songbook are the only instruments mentioned; learning new songs expands the range of actions such as summoning rain or easing garden work.
- Experiment with each new song in a different location to discover its effect.
- Listen for the game's audio cue that confirms a spell has activated.

garden management
The University Garden lets you plant both ordinary and arcane flora. Songs can summon clouds to bring rain, which is presented as a way to aid cultivation.
As you gain experience, you can choose skills that help with gardening, trading, or grant special abilities such as speaking to frogs.
- Check the garden after learning a new song to see any visual changes.
- Compare the garden’s appearance before and after using a rain‑summoning song.
