From the introduction: When I got back from snooping around the naval base Circes was waiting in my room. Pleasant as that was, how did she know where I was staying? Worrying. Anyway, she tells me this isn't Paradise Island but there should be a portal on this island that will take me to the right island. She also tells me she's hired me a boat - helpful but expensive. She seems even more keen that I am to find this island. Right - off sailing.
