Welcome my dear brothers and sisters lovers of the wonderful world of video games.
Today we continue the second part of the end of the story of Tomb Raider, where I could finally find the tomb of the queen of the Yamatai, an ancient Japanese civilization where their queen had special abilities to control the storm, which prevents Lara and her friends to leave this island.
Things got very complicated in the windy area, where something told me that I was not welcome in this place, because with every step I took, the wind was much stronger and prevented me from advancing in the story of the game, since there was nothing more to look for treasures.
There were many Yamatai samurai which cost me a bit to defeat, because they are very experienced soldiers in combat, and although they do not use firearms, they know how to use the bow quite well, having an unimaginable aim, but you always have a moment to attack.
When I reach a new area, a huge burly beast (the same I saw at the beginning of the game only with armor) appears in action to give me a beating, of all the fights I've had in this game, this is the one that has cost me the most, as the wind and the enemies that appeared at every moment made it very complicated.
After my fight against that formidable beast, I finally entered an area where I wanted to focus on the amount of bodies that were hanging, in fact I made a close up where you can see Lara's face, she almost vomited because the smell here with so many dead must not be nice lol.
Further on I got to where there was a pendulum under a huge door, where I had to move it to open a gap and pass through it, I thought that red on the floor was blood and bodies, but it was nothing more than dry plants.
Honestly, I thought those red things on the ground were blood as I mentioned before, but after focusing the camera a bit, even though there are many skeletons, there is no fresh body to show that it was real blood, I found it interesting, as they are dry leaves.
I then played a bit with the camera perspective to get the best angles and get a good shot.
After that part, I arrived to the temple of Jimico, the goddess of the storms of this island, which cursed so that everyone who enters in it leaves it, Lara mentioned that Jimico the queen of the Yamatai, needed a new body once every few centuries to preserve life and continue staying young without dying, where Samantha's body was young enough to be able to use it in pact and take her body to continue cursing the island.
Knowing this Lara, with even more reason, must rescue her friend almost sister Sam to be able to leave this island, then I found the place impressive, the tombs were huge and the statues were almost polished gold.
I went a little further and passed through a cavern where at the end there was a door with two copper statues, they looked great and gave this area a totally spooky look.
Behind that door was the ziggurat of the abyss, the final part of this game I will leave for another post.
Thank you very much for coming this far in my publication, I hope you like it, until next time.
