North is to the upper right of your screen. Luna has three gates. West (towards upper left of screen), East (to the lower right), and south (to the lower left).
The only hostile monster in the area as a rule is the vampire bat so it would be good for a new player. If you see one, run onto a house that has yellow named NPCs in front of it. These houses are set public so anyone can go onto it. Some are private and can not be entered. You can fight the bat from the house.
The yellow lamp post house is set public. You can log out in it but will log back in to the game outside under the sign where a monster can attack you and would need to go back inside.
My crafters will make the standard decoration items for your new home for you. Just let them know what you want.
I was new to this world once myself. I'll help you get started learning this world.
