As Lara slides down the slope, take a jump and grab when Lara reaches the brightly lit part of the passage. Pull up into SECRET #1 and run forward to collect a large Medi Pack (1). Turn around and run back down the tunnel and turn around. Hop backwards to drop back down the ramp below. | ||
The Hand of Orion
|
Allow Lara to slide down the steep tunnel and drop into the room below. Turn left and throw the lever to open the gate at the opposite end of the room. Reverse roll and run forward to the other end of the room. Step forward and slide into the room below. As soon as Lara slides into the room, a timer will be activated. When the time has elapsed, spikes will shoot out of all the dark star-shaped holes and kill Lara. Quickly pick up The Hand of Orion (2) and the walls ahead and to either side will disappear. | ||
SECRET #2
|
Quickly angle Lara to the left and take a standing jump and slide down into SECRET #2. Pick up a box of regular shotgun shells (3) and the gate ahead will open. | ||
|
Quickly angle Lara and take a standing jump and slide down beyond the
timed spikes.1
Continue forward through the next room with the two statues and stop
before Lara reaches the ring of star-shaped holes. Spikes will
periodically emerge from the holes, so wait until the spikes start to
recede and take a standing jump past the spikes. Continue forward into the next room and turn right. Draw pistols and shoot the large vase on the left. Jump or vault up onto the ledge and pick up the small Medi Pack (4) that was hidden inside. Drop back to the floor of the room and proceed forward into the next room. Once again, Lara will encounter a ring of star-shaped holes. When Lara approaches, spikes will thrust out of the holes. Wait until the spikes begin to recede and run forward and drop into the hole beyond the spikes. Lara will slide down a sloped tunnel until the tunnel flattens out and opens to a room beyond. Turn left and place the Hand of Orion into its receptacle. Doing so will cause the spikes that protrude upward from the top of the brick ledge in the next room to retract but also cause the curved rotor in center of the room to begin rotating. On each arm of the rotor is a rotating blade that travels up and down the curved rotor. Turn right and drop into the room. Turn left and run to the corner of the room and pick up a small Medi Pack (5). Turn around and run back to the opening. Turn right and climb back up to the ledge. Turn around and squarely face the room2. Take a hop backward away from the opening of the tunnel. When the rotor moves past, take a standing jump and grab to reach the ledge in the middle of the room. Shimmy to the left until Lara shimmies around the corner. Wait at the corner until the rotor moves past. Quickly, pull up, take a backflip and hop backwards, off the ledge and hang from the ledge. Shimmy to the left until Lara is centered on the ledge. When the rotor moves past, pull up and jump in place to clear the next rotor. Step forward and take another jump in place to clear the approaching rotor. When Lara lands, grab the shotgun (6), which will count as regular shotgun shells if Lara is already carrying the shotgun, and quickly hop backwards and drop to the floor of the room. Side step to the right and run forward. Turn right and climb back up into the tunnel. Turn around and take a hop back and wait until the rotor moves past. Take a standing jump and grab to return to the structure in the middle of the room. Shimmy to the right until Lara shimmies around the corner and continue shimming until Lara is lined up with the center of the middle ledge. When the rotor moves past, pull up and take a jump over the next rotor. Step forward and take a jump over the next rotor. When Lara lands, grab the box of regular shotgun shells (7) and hop backwards and grab the edge of the structure. Continue shimmying around the structure to the right until Lara rounds two corners until reaches the far end of the room. Wait for the rotor to move past and then quickly pull up and backflip to the safety of the flat area beyond the rotor room. Turn around and run forward and turn right. Vault up into the next tunnel and run up the slope. There is a large room ahead with a sarcophagus and beyond that is a room with a statue. Step forward into the room and turn left. Run forward to the corner and pick up a small Medi Pack (8). Reverse roll and across the room. When Lara reaches the corner, turn left and run to the next corner. Pick up a box of regular shotgun shells (9). Turn left run forward and turn right to enter the next passage. Follow the passage as it turns to the left and enter the next room.

with the sarcophagus. Approach the steps near the foot of the
sarcophagus and Lara will climb onto the sarcophagus, and yank the
Amulet of Horus (13) up off of the cover
of the sarcophagus. Lara will then take a side flip off of the
sarcophagus and a fiery red blood will seep out from underneath the
sarcophagus and three coffins in the next room will open to reveal two
mummies3 (1,
2) which will come to life when Lara approaches them. Turn right and follow the fiery red blood as it seeps along the trenches into the passageway that leads to the room with the statue. Follow the passageway as it turns to the left and enter the room with the statue. Push the statue forward once, and then push it to the right twice so that it comes to rest on the square with the circle. A passageway will open behind the mummy that is in the coffin across the room. Reverse roll and approach the mummy, and it will come to life. Take a few hops back to lure it away from its coffin. When the mummy is clear of the coffin, quickly zip past the mummy and enter the passageway behind the coffin. Turn left, run forward and safety drop into the dark passageway below. Turn around and run forward into the next tunnel. Turn left and run forward into the cave. Draw weapons and kill two jackals (3, 4) that will emerge from ahead and to either side of Lara when she reaches the middle of the cavern.

gate on the wall to Lara's right will open. Quickly, reverse roll,
turn left, and run across the room. Take a running jump or climb into
the newly opened gate. Step forward and slide down the slope. When Lara lands in the room below, sand will begin to pour in from above, filling the room, and causing Lara to rise upward toward the spikes in the ceiling of the room. As soon as she lands, turn left and sprint to the far left corner of the room to avoid getting impaled by the spikes. Allow the room to fill and vault out of the room into the tunnel above.

Drop off the other side of the block and run forward and turn left. Kill another jackal (14) that will appear just to the left of the doorway. When it's dead, reenter the golden doorway and climb back over the block. Enter the sandy room and place the Golden Serpent in the receptacle on the right and the Scarab Talisman in the receptacle on the left. A gate will close, preventing exit by the tunnel that Lara entered from. Sand will also begin pouring into the room, causing the level of the floor to rise. The mummy (15) will also awaken and begin chasing Lara. Simply continue to run around the perimeter of the room until the level of the sand rises high enough to allow Lara to climb up into the tunnel above. Climb up into the smaller tunnel, run forward, and vault up over the ledge. Continue running forward toward the hazy sunlight. Lara steps slowly out of the tunnel. She pauses at the mouth of the tunnel to scan left and right. When she finds that she is alone in the desert, she steps out of the tunnel. She moves forward a few meters and kneels on the ground while removing her back pack. She drops the pack against a small rock and flips open the flap. She produces the Amulet of Horus and begins to read the hieroglyphics inscribed around it. As Lara begins to read, dark clouds roll in, and the skies begin to darken. "I, Semerkhet, High Priest of Horus, forewarn that he who removes the amulet shall have released Seth5." As Lara continues to read the inscription, she begins to imagine the low voice of the inscriber "He who walked [abroad with the jackal?] at the dawn of man shall once again violate the earth." She envisions the scene. In the dark burial chamber, two gilded creatures stand at opposite ends of a large stone sarcophagus and a priest in between. One creature has the head of a falcon. He is clad golden armor and golden gauntlets. The other has the head of a jackal. Seth, the jackal creature, kneels before Horus at the foot of the sarcophagus. The human priest, Semerkhet, steps up to the sarcophagus and rotates a handle on the side of the sarcophagus that raises the stone lid. Seth steps into the stone sarcophagus and lies down. Horus, the creature with the head of a falcon, extends his arm straight. His hand is flat with his palm down. He gestures downward with his arm Semerkhet presses the flat handle into the sarcophagus. Electricity is released through lid as it is lowered. The underside of the lid is covered with long metal spikes and the lid crackles with energy as it is lowered. When the sarcophagus lid is closed, blood begins to flow from four spouts, shaped like the heads of jackals, that are at the base of the sarcophagus. Semerkhet continues, "Seth, ruler of evil, will again be free to return in a distant millennia. At his heel - plagues of locusts. Harvests fail under the broken skies." He hands an ankh shaped amulet to Horus who inserts it into the lid of the sarcophagus. The flow of blood from the four spouts turns into sand and then ceases to flow from the spouts. Lara's mind is snapped back into the present when she hears the click of a revolver and feels the end of its cold barrel pressed against her temple. She looks up without moving her head and sarcastically states, "My trusty companion returns." Ahmed looks down at Lara and demands, "The amulet woman!" Lara is nonplused, and finishes reading the inscription aloud, "Once called forth shall the heavens split asunder, and the light of the sun god Horus shall banish the lord of darkness Seth." The skies are stormy and dark now. A bolt of lightning strikes extremely near them, and the spray of rocks knocks Ahmed onto his back. He shakes his head and begins to rise, but Lara has both her pistols trained on him, and announces, "I wouldn't advise it." Just then a Jeep pulls up to the site and honks.(follow plot) |
