That area with the pterodactyl is sort of an easter egg aswell as a secret, during Shakespeare Cliff just before you finish the level, there is a pump access card just sitting on the ground right in the exit tunnel, now as you first enter the huge area, there is a pump at the side, so after getting the card, find your way back up to the top and flood the place, you can then go to the bottom by the glowing goo and access new places.

Monster real and fake...
The first time practically beginning of the level, where Lara stands on a bridge and sees it in the distance on the loch (REAL, looks like a serpent close up), the second time it can be seen behind the bars in the water below the high climbing tower (REAL), the third time it jumps (rearers) out of the water (really REAL ), and the fourth time in the cave (you see the FAKE monsters head moving), and then dive in and come up inside the monsters 'belly' and see the controls (FAKE). |

I never actually found it at the side before now. The real one anyway, only the lake and machine. xD

Speaking of craziness.
Tony was quite mind****ed when we met him in the jungle. Maybe the artifacts cause mental illness? Remember that "Reunion" plays between or within different dimensions. The level title "It's a madhouse!" would make much more sense. |

I want to try and explain TRTLA as I see it.
The Hand Of Rathmore We never really learned of The Hand Of Rathmores true abilities, just a by product Sophia was using on people to mutate them, maybe it had the power of telekinesis similar to the Infada Stone since meteorites mysteriously appeared and moved around in Reunion or maybe its power alone was to summon meteorites like the one it was made from in case it got destroyed? Sophia Lea Alive How Sophia survived from TR3, I assume that she only had her immortality destroyed when she faced Lara beings as she was vulnerable to gunfire this time around, as it could make sense since Willard came back, even if only briefly but they both had used the power of the Eye Of Isis before. Sophia Discovering Rathmore Beings as Willard knew that one of the Artifacts were in London, he himself may have met with Sophia at some point, trying to persuade her to depart ownership of the Eye Of Isis but refusal probably happened and he left. I think some time after, Sophia may have gained the initiative to research more in depth about Willard, then may have came across information on other artifacts which resembled hers or she never knew of the other ones and only learned of the location which Willard had hidden Rathmore. Conclusion Either way that is how I understand the game, but people may have other ways of seeing things. |

1.) I think the mutated bodies that we see in the cages in "Sleeping with the Fishes" were transported to France to be disposed of. If you notice in various areas of "It's a Madhouse" and "Reunion", there are tons of floating dead bodies and corpses all over the place. There are also men who appear to have their hearts ripped out and attack Lara in Reunion. They were probably test subjects by Sophia and were brainwashed to serve under her. The reason i believe France was her dumping grounds for the bodies because you can also find floating dead bodies in the underwater channels in "All Hallows". 2.) I always thought that this segment was way too bizarre. First Lara has the Hand of Rathmore in her possession and places it into the dead corpse. But in the next level Sophia Leigh has the Hand of Rathmore and you have to fight her to get it back? 3.) I always thought that "Reunion" took place in an actual location, but it was heavily altered by the presence of the Hand of Rathmore. I mean after Lara defeats Sophia, she is out on the beach again as if she was always in the real world. Maybe the Hand of Rathmore did bend reality a little bit in the "Reunion" level, but Lara and Sophia are still fighting in a real location that has been seriously altered by the meteorite artifact. 4.) Chi nailed this one. 5.) It looks like she wanted to manipulate the power source of the artifact in order to gain some sort of power. It looks like she has become a little more Twisted with the Hand of Rathmore too. When she had the Eye of Isis, she mainly disfigured the Damned and cursed them to eternal life with their hideous figures. But with the Hand of Rathmore, she is obviously using the artifact for a greater power. I mean look how a lot of the dead men in the Reunion level have their hearts ripped out. I think immortality is still one of her main drives with the fifth meteorite artifact. |
