You spawn near the central hub area with the main fountain and castle structures. From there, you can explore outward to find villages, forests, and the docks with the sailing ship.

Yes, you can build freely on the map. Many players use existing structures as inspiration or set up bases in the villages, though you may want to back up your world before making major changes.
