The fisherman was very unhappy. "What an unlucky man I am to have freed you! I implore you to spare my life."
"I have told you," said the genius, "that it is impossible. Choose quickly; you are wasting time."
The fisherman began to devise a plot.
"Since I must die," he said, "before I choose the manner of my death, I conjure you on your honour to tell me if you really were in that vase?"
"Yes, I was," answered the genius.
"I really cannot believe it," said the fisherman. "That vase could not contain one of your feet even, and how could your whole body go in? I cannot believe it unless I see you do the thing."

Answer:

The fisherman's motivation to question the truth of the genius's claim about being inside the vase moves the plot forward by introducing a challenge or skepticism. This doubt expressed by the fisherman creates tension and prompts the genius to prove his ability, setting the stage for a potential demonstration. This adds a layer of intrigue and uncertainty to the narrative, contributing to the development of the story and the interaction between the characters.
