Then in the Present Lara
discovers that her old friend had escaped and the legend of
Tiwanaku's Queen who rose to power after meeting a shaman and
staff weapon (and was shortly brought to paradise by a woman in
a lake. The tomb of the Queen of Tiwanaku is linked to Bolivia
and also the incident in Nepal when she was a child (as well as
the Arthurian Legend). To her surprise she realises that the
artefact she is hunting has already been discovered, and is in
the 'care' of
Yakuza
boss Shogo Takamoto.
Lara's journey
takes her to Japan, where she meets with the murderous Takamoto
and demands a stolen sword fragment from him. He refuses and
retreats to his penthouse, leaving Lara to deal with his
cronies. She wipes them out and follows Takamoto to the roof of
his penthouse, where she witnesses for herself its terrifying
power. Nonetheless, she manages to overcome Takamoto and
retrieve the second artefact.
She leaves for
Ghana to chase Rutland. He too possesses a sword fragment and he
tells her about something called the Ghalali Key, believing Lara
to own it. Lara has no idea what he is talking about and this
frustrates him and he saves her. She beats him and takes his
sword fragment. |
