After completing Peru, Lara breaks into Natla Technologies and discovers that Pierre (a fellow tomb raider), is also on the prowl in Greece, for the same piece of the Scion. Lara has to outwit the competition.

In the opening level movie sequence Pierre taunts Lara in the shadows. She is up for Pierre's challenge. Be on the look-out the minute you enter the courtyard of the ancient church. Load your pistols. Walk forward. Watch for 2 lions to emerge from behind the stone pillars. Use the adrenalin attack dodge to avoid heavy injury. The kittens go down. The only way out seems to be going up. Go to the end of the yard and find a small pillar.
|
 |
Climb the smallest pillar using the stone cracks. Climb to the top of the first pillar [1]. Take a running jump to the taller pillar on the right (it's a leap). Grab the lower crack of the tall pillar. Shimy around to the left and right, working your way up the cracks til you pull-up on top [2]. From the back of the pillar, take a long running leap to the balcony on the right. Lara will be able to grab the ledge. Inside the room, an artifact behind an iron gate.
|
 |
We'll be back for that later. Run from the balcony to the lower stone balcony along the wall. Look for the grapple wall hook [square] along the right wall. Take a running jump, catch the hook and wall swing & run across to the far stone terrace. Pick-up the small medipack behind the pillar on the right. Walk around to the other hallway on the far side of the terrace. Look closely at the wall mural on the door. Remember the 2 ruby points.
|
 |
Walk back to the center of the terrace and look at the zodiac mural on the back wall. Standing on the floor pressure plate will reset the lights in the mural. Load your pistols. Your red lock-on target ring will be your guide. Remember the 2 ruby points from the door. Using your right controller stick, position the target ring on the correct light point. Shoot at it and the light point goes brilliant white. Move the ring. Shoot the 2nd target.
|
 |
If successful a cutaway scene shows the wooden door opening. Walk down the right hallway. Look for the grapple point along the right wall. Run out and catch the hall hook [square]. Swing and run along the wall then release and jump to the stone baclony. Inside on the floor another zodiac mural puzzle with 4 different ruby points. Remember the lit points. Use the wall hook and swing run back to the terrace and walk back to the mural.
|
 |
First, walk over the pressure plate to reset the mural lights. Load your pistols. Aim your lock-on target ring on the right point and shoot. Re-aim your target ring using the right controller stick, and shoot-out all 4 correct points. if successful, a cutaway scene shows the large iron gate opening (right behind you), leading to the middle of the terrace. If UNSUCCESSFUL, reset and try again.
|
 |
Walk in to the center terrace. Examine the bronze globe sculpture. It is held onto its frame with 2 retaining rings. Use the grapple and pull [triangle] both rings off the frame. The globe will teeter and roll off the frame to the stone floor. Now grab the globe and roll it over the edge of the terrace to the floor below. To get down to the floor below, look for a small column on the left and jump down. From there jump to the floor. No harm.
|
 |
To exit this area, Lara has to roll the globe over to the round pressure plate in the center of the courtyard floor with the pillars. Once on the plate, the overhead gate at the end, on the upper floor [X], will open. Now go back to the small pillar and climb. Jump to the tall pillar on the right and pull-up to the top. Take a running leap from the top of the tall pillar, over to the balcony ledge at the end. Pick-up the small medipack.
|
 |
Inside the foyer, go the right. Run down the broken stairs, then jump to the far stairs. Walk down the steps to the bottom. Pick-up the large medipack on the right. There's another round pressure plate in the floor. Stepping on it releases the gate to the stair tunnel leading out. We need to get the bronze globe in here. Go to the right of the door and pull the wall lever. The door opens. Walk cautiously back into the courtyard. Load your pistols.
|
 |
2 lions come running out from behind the tall pillar on the right. Go to the left running backwards. Shoot at the lions while you're running. If they go into arednalin attack, remember to use the dodge move. Kitties go to sleep. Grab the bronze globe and roll it into the room at the end. Drop the globe onto the round pressure plate releasing the gate to the stair tunnel. Now for a small detour. Look to the ceiling mural above the doorway.
|
 |
This is the puzzle code to release the gate that's holding the artifact. Remember the 7 ruby points. Climb back up the pillars, jump across the balconies to the back terrace. Go to the zodiac mural and reset the puzzle with the pressure plate. Shoot-out all 7 correct light points. A cutaway scene shows the gate opening leading to the artifact. Use the grapple and swing run back along the left wall to the balcony and grab artifact 1/6.
|
Safety-drop down from the edge of the lower smaller balcony to the floor. Walk out through the foyer, up the stairs and down the long spiral stair tunnel.
