If you want, go up and talk to your buddy first sitting at the desk. He's not going to move or help you. Pick-up your PLS - Personal Light Source. |

Go up the stairs first. Walk along the back catwalk to the small office. Look to your right as you enter. Pick-up bronze reward 15/16. Go to the back wall to the left and pull the small golden lever on the pedestal. A small section of bookcase slides open revealing a small hidden room. Go inside and pick-up bronze reward 16/16. Go back out to the library, but do not go down the stairs just yet. Look up and find the book cart. |
 |
There's a shiny grapple point under the cart rails. Now go down the stairs and pull the book cart down from the rails. Interact with the book cart and push it onto one of the pressure pads on either side of the desk. No go back to the exit door. Look to your left. Load your pistols and shoot-out the wooden planks. Pull out the other book cart and roll it over to the other pressure pad by the desk. A secret passageway opens in the bookcase wall. |
|
Before going down the passageway, go back and pick-up silver reward 8/10 in the alcove you just pulled the book cart from. Turn on your PLS and go down the dark stairway. Around the corner grab silver reward 9/10. Look for the red tongue statue and touch the tongue. The statue will rotate revealing a stone plaque. It talks about the statues with their backs to each other in the swimming pool (which we have alreday done). If you want, continue down the dark passageway and climb the steps at the other end. Touch the tongue on the face statue. We are now back in Lara's bedroom. Return to the library. |

There's one section of bookcase that is glowing, which means it's part of a mechanism (there's something behind it). The clue from the plaque in the swimming pool is the sequence of book colors to push. Starting in the office on the second floor, push the yellow book. Go out to the catwalk and push the topaz book. Go down the stairs to the exit wall. Push the blue book. Go to the far wall and push the red book. The bookcase section opens. |
 |
Pick-up silver reward 10/10. Another plaque is revealed. It talks about revealed visage and another statue? Return to the great hall with the fireplace. Something new. The paintings at the ends of the catwalks have changed. There are now gold switches. Walk to the end. Find the upright spears along the glass wall of the computer room. Use the grapple and pull down the spears. Quickly swing to the other side and push the 2nd switch. |

[movie sequence begins] A hole opens up in the floor below and a giant statue of Athena rises up.
Run down to the lower hall. Turn the statue of Athena 90 degrees to face the large picture window by the stairs. Now go walk onto the pressure pad with the sun symobol in the floor. The statue of Athena lowers back into the floor and a large wooden column behind it rises up. The golden reward is on top of the column. GO GET IT!! We're all done. |
