Edward had entered into the country adjacent to the one he was suppose to be infilling in. When he said he wanted in the other country the airmen who dropped him in laughed at him like he was crazy. But it worked out as he found a bumpkin who would take him in stashed among his goods in his cart as long as he paid him when he got to where he wanted to go. He had no intention of paying the man, he also had no intention of going to the mans destination.

So here he was stashed among a traders goods. He heard talking outside the guards had stopped the cart man but the guy had saved up for this trip and thought he was going to get enough to cover that bribe and more from Edward. So the guards did not check his goods instead they waved him in. When they made it a good distance away from the checkpoint Edward stood up in the back of the cart and shot the cart master in the back of the head. No since in letting the guy reveal he was here.

Slipping up to the drivers bench he took the reigns of the donkey and brought it to the side of the road. He unhitched and unbridled the donkey and let it roam free. Then he checked the traders goods, nothing of use cheap knock off gold watches and jewelry. So he covered it in jungle brush and made a mental note to come back later and burn the cart just in case. He hid the body in the jungle next and slipped away like a shadow into the brush looking for these other agents the letter mentioned.
