Jump back across the floor (which is now an island) and find the other wooden scaffolding tower. Safety drop from that tower down to the floor below. Now we have to move both towers to the other side of the hall. Pull the first tower all the way to the edge of the floor as far as you can. Make sure it's under the stone ledge of the archway overhead [1]. Pull the second tower around til you find a patch of worn earth. Poisiton it 2/3 the way [2].
|
 |
Find the broken tower section. Climb up and jump to the wall. Climb the stone wall ledges back up to the tile floor. Jump across the gap to the center section. Jump across to the first wooden platform then the second wooden platform. From there, take a running jump and grab the stone ledge of the archway. Pull-up and walk down the hallway. More dart traps. Safety drop over the edge [X] and then down 2 stone wall ledges. Pick-up artifact 1/2.
|
 |
To get back up, jump to the wooden pole. Shimy up the pole. Jump to the stone wall ledges, then climb up to the floor again. Jump past the darts to the top of the wooden pole. Jump to the left to the stone wall ledge. Lean and jump to the right to the next stone ledge. Ignore the horizontal bar. Jump to the top of the next wooden pole then jump to the floor. Walk down the hallway. Enter the room with the lever against the far wall.

This looks too easy? (and you're right). As Lara approaches the lever, the floor beneath her gives away. She's tumbles into the pit below. Load your shotgun for the 2 wolves that come out of nowhere. Take them down quickly or try to run up the wooden ramp to shoot them from a higher vantage point. Find the metal cage in a dark alcove along the back wall of the wooden walkway. Push the cage over the edge to the lower floor area.
|
 |
Push the cage up against the stone column with the small stone ledges. Climb up the cage then jump to the stone ledges. Jump up, lean back and grab the first wooden pole. Jump to the second wooden pole. Lean back. Jump to the stone column. Shimy to the right. Lean back. Grab the horizontal pole. Swing around, release and grab the stone wall ledge against the far wall. Climb up the next 2 stone ledges, then jump to the wooden pole.
|
DETOUR! Shimy all the way up the pole. Facing the wall. pivot around the pole to face the left wall. You can see artifact 2/2 up top on a small ledge. Leap to the ledge, pull-up and grab it. To get back, safety drop from the edge, lean back and grab the pole. Slide down a little so you're just above the top of the lever.
|
 |
Jump to the ledge above the lever then drop down. Lara's weight will pull the lever down. A cutaway scene show the last gate opening, leaving an open staircase. Don't drop from the lever. Instead, lean right and grab the horizontal pole. Steady Lara on the pole [triangle]. Swing around, release and grab the wall ledge. Pull-up into the tunnel and walk around to the far side. Safety drop down to the solid floor. Another raptor scream!!
|
 |
Load your pistols or shotgun. Shoot the raptor as he comes into view. If he goes into an adrenalin attack, use the dodge move. He goes down eventually. Work your way back down the hallway, past the dart traps over the pit. There's another raptor down in the pit so don't fall. If you do. take him down and climb out using the wooden pole and ledges.

After all this work, we finally get to the great hall and start the walk up the staircase to the tomb. Don't worry. No more animals. Enter the tomb. Lara can see the piece of the Scion hovering over a pedestal. [movie sequence begins] Lara eyes the piece of the Scion and walks past it to the throne of Qualopec. She reads the inscriptions on the wall and examines Qualopec closely.
|
 |
[movie sequence continues] One of the centaurs comes to life and lunges at Lara but misses and collapses (dead)? In a panic, Lara hoists her pistols and watches the other centaur and Qualopec. She moves backwards and grabs the piece of the Scion. There is a rumble and the entire temple starts to break apart. Lara runs out of the room.
|
 |
Run across the great hall, and out the other hallway (the way we came in). Traverse the pit (yes there's another raptor below) and run out the cave til the level ends. [movie sequence begins] Lara emerges from the lagoon by the Lost Valley. Larson is waiting for her with a shotgun. He wants the piece of the Scion. Lara is not going to give it up without a fight.
|
 |
Follow the action button sequence and beat on Larson til he collapses. Revenge is sweet! Lara questions Larson about the other pieces of the Scion and he leaks the name Pierre. Lara remembers that name. She walks away, but not before she hits him again and takes his shotgun. Lara breaks in to Natla Technologies to find out more.
