I explored a cavern that was primarily underwater, using rope pulls to clear obstacles and dodging lethal floor traps. While diving for a hidden path, I narrowly avoided a giant predatory fish and survived several near-drowning moments in tight crevices.
This cave looked like it was usually underwater, just as Lara mentioned. I had to pass through some shallow water to rope pull several large obstacles blocking my path.
Then I reached a site where I had to cut tripwire traps that would have taken me down otherwise. After clearing them, I had to scramble under low obstructions to proceed.
When I was going through a tiny tunnel in the cave, a group of rats suddenly scurried past. The unexpected movement spooked both Lara and me in the dark space.
After reaching a strange, open chamber, I learned that I could use survival instincts. This helped me highlight useful objects and potential paths around the damp environment.
Lara assumed there could be something hidden underwater as there was no other way forward. I jumped into the water and started diving below the clean surface.
There was a tight underwater path that I was crossing. At the same time, I noticed a giant, menacing fish pass right behind me in the shadows.
I saw a similar fish swimming ahead of me while I was desperately in need of air. The presence of the predator made the search for an exit much more intense.
Right when I was in desperate need of oxygen, I found trapped air pockets against the ceiling. I took a deep breath and then dove back underwater to continue.
Just as I noticed a way out, the big fish attacked Lara. She somehow managed to kick it away and escape the predator's jaws just in time.
But the path ahead was even more dangerous because it was too tight for her to fit easily. I felt confused about how to navigate the narrow, jagged rocks.
She had nothing to do but try harder to squeeze through while rocks fell toward her. The tunnel was collapsing, making every second underwater count.
I kept pushing toward the light above. After almost drowning multiple times, Lara finally broke the surface and looked completely relieved to be back in the open air.
