Abar made a deal with the Medjay: in exchange for the last key in her hands, he would have to defeat a bunch of crocodiles causing trouble in the swamps around the village. Once Bayek dealt with the crocodile infestation, Abar gave him the key he needed to open the hidden chest, that contained the Black Hood outfit.[2]
Around the same time, Bayek also found a treasure in the village.[3]
