Schlatt POV

I never really wanted to come to this island. It was a terrible island, and nothing like the big city that I had always grown up in. There was nothing to do here, with little to no one to talk to about anything. If you did something wrong, everyone would know in just a matter of a day. And if you're unlucky, only a matter of hours.
