TRUE.because everything is connected
Releases a dopamine in the brain regions that control pleasure and motivation, it changes your brain and it can lead to withdrawal symptoms when you try to quit
In the beginning of the short story, I think the main character and his assitant crew member are on a boat and looking at the island and discussing how no one ever comes back from that place. The main character falls into the water but the boat keeps on going and he gets washed onto the shore of the island.
Hope this helped!
