Hi.
Congrats on getting one of the best accessible games ever made.
Bare in mind there is a lot to learn in Kodp, not just about how to play the
game, but also about the Orlanthi culture and the world, which will be vital
if you want to get into the story, however perciveering is very much well
worth it, though I recommend clearing your calindar for a while sinse Kodp
takes a lot of time playing.
For this reason I did record a podcast tutorial on how to get started which
hopefully explains some of the major points, find it here:

Also the Kodp wiki can come in handyy, especially for looking at how game
mechanics work, though bare in mind it is chock full of spoilers and the
last thing you want is the game spoiled for you.

As regards mysteries.
Each God has several different blessings they can do, and several like
Orlanth the Stormfather and Ernalda the earth mother have myths to learn
that let you perform heroquests.
Select a god and you will notice several radial buttons in two columns,
which are their blessings with descriptive text, however the radial buttons
will initially be disabled, this is because you don't know how to cast that
ritual blessing yet, so need to sacrifice to the gods for mysteries.
If your sacrifice is successful (which can depend upon various things like
putting points of clan magic into mysteries during sacred time or having a
worshipper of that god on your ring), you will either learn some of the
myths associated with that god, or learn a blessing, for example if you
sacrifice to Orlant you might learn the rain blessing which improves your
crops.
Once you know some blessings, you can there either build a shrine to a god
which gives you a blessing perminantly, or sacrifice to a god for a
temporary blessing for just that year.
Personally I never bother sacrificing for temporary blessings, sinse it's
more expensive in the long run and so prefer to build lots of shrines
instead, particularly sinse the extra blessings usually though not always
compensate for the upckeep of the temples, but how you play is up to you,
there are no hard and fast rules with Kodp.
All the best,
Dark.
