After receiving the message from the white turban, Gaius went to the fish market in Barqa. After locating one of the best fisherman in the area, he bought a bushel of the best of this fisherman's latest catch which he then had delivered to his small boat at the docks. He then navigated up river and looked for the secret entrance to the king of Arkbri's lair and soon after he arrived at his destination. The king's gaurds were hesitant to let him dock his boat but after seeing his load of fish let the king know of his arrival. "What brings you here with this load of fish?" asked the king of Gaius. "I have a favor to ask of you," Gaius replied. "I am in urgent need to find Ageven and have this letter delivered to him. As I know you have eyes all along the Arkbri river, I would beg of you to help me in this matter. I am willing to pay a large reward in fish now as well as after the letter has been delivered unopened and Ageven's reply has been brought to me." "Surely you have messengers yourself that could do this task," commented the king. "Why ask me to do it instead?" "This matter is a matter of life and death," Gaius replied. "My men might be watched and ambushed while noone watches your men." "Fair enough," replied the king, "but I will require three of these bushels of fish at the same quality after my men have completed this mission." "Done." And so a letter was soon delivered to Ageven.
