You wake up in a tent, as it seems you have just rescued a very rich girl.
She asked you to take her to her uncles house because it is safe there (which is the opening tutorial but can be skipped.)
The uncle tells her that there was a guy who was badly injured and had left him a package before he was gone.
They asked you to bring the package to the Western Isles... From here on out you are on your own to figure out how to get there, by doing side stories and quests, talk to people who would help you on your way to your next destination...
