ĭue to this friendship and Lagos' aid, Brasidas wanted to free Lagos from the Cult of Kosmos' grasp when he came to Arkadia with Myrrine and her daughter Kassandra around 428 BCE. Afterwards, he offered advice to Kassandra, before leaving with Myrrine for Arkadia. He also introduced them and defended them during Kassandra and Myrrine's meeting with the Two Kings of Sparta, Archidamos and Pausanias. Two years later, following Kassandra and Myrrine's return to Lakonia, Brasidas assisted them in their efforts to reclaim their citizenship and home.

After dispatching the waves of the Monger's thugs, Brasidas introduced himself to Kassandra and discussed how to deal with the Monger, insisting the he be killed quietly, rather than be publicly lynched as Anthousa desired, since he believed it would lead to anarchy in Korinth. Īround 430 BCE, Brasidas assisted the misthios Kassandra in destroying a warehouse belonging to the Monger. However, they disagreed with one another about dealing with the Monger's death Anthousa called for him to be killed in public while Brasidas and Sparta wanted a quiet killing. He also met the leader of the hetairai, Anthousa, who took charge in the efforts against the Monger's rule. There, Brasidas was tasked to spy on the Monger, a thug and a member of the Cult of Kosmos who took control of Korinth and the region.
When the Peloponnesian War broke out, Brasidas was sent by King Archidamos to Korinthia, which was an ally of the state. Despite their differences in opinions, they were fond of each other's company and respected each other. When Myrrine left Sparta around 446 BCE after the incident on Mount Taygetos, many were willing to write her off as dead, but rumors of her survival persisted, and Brasidas was delighted to learn that they these rumors were true.
The two kept in contact throughout the years and grew close, with Brasidas even referring to Lagos as a "dear friend." īrasidas had also befriended Myrrine, the daughter of the late King Leonidas I and wife of the general Nikolaos. Lagos managed to get supplies through to the starving soldiers serving Brasidas this deed made enough of an impression on Brasidas that he reminisced about it years later during the Peloponnesian War. Well before the Peloponnesian War swept through the Greek world, Brasidas made the acquaintance of Lagos, a farmer who went on to become the leader of Arkadia.
