Newbie Trying to Understand How It is Played

Hi, this game looks very beautiful and the writing is poetic!  I am trying, however, to grasp, how the gameplay starts and stops, and generally how it is supposed to go. Reading it feels like a reference book, but doesn't tell me how this roleplay game starts.  Reading some reviews didn't help as these reviews did not talk about gameplay to the extent I need.  I am experienced with roleplaying in general and have played and DMed in DnD 5e.  When I say "how it is supposed to go" does the game, for example, have a starting story that we are supposed to start with? I read the story about the depressed God of Death and world that it is lived in, but are we supposed to start Songbirds in a particular zoomed-in setting/scene (like at a gate, or at a particular village, or about to be on the run etc etc) or with particular goals? What kind of themes/goals/ends should we explore very specifically?

There's a few tables for generating starting points, quests, and so on in the book. 

I've also released 2 adventures which are on my page
