Walkthrough by G&D productions.
The Thylmedykes are back!
You must destroy them!
1: Dreams.
Go towards the pool and take a right.
Detour
for a Secret: Shoot the tongue in the lions head on the wall and then go to the
other side and do the same. The door in the E wall opens. Go in and jump over
the pit, walk over the bridge and grab Secret #1,
a Secret Dragon. Go back over the bridge and the pit and to the pool.
The
Ruby Key.
Jump
over to the opening W and be careful with the spikes. Go to the gate and it
will open up. Go through and notice the pedestal with the glass cover left. Go
over the bridge, up the stairs to a big lake. Go over the next bridge and jump
to the island on the right (N) and grab the Ruby Key.
The
Castle Key.
Jump back to the bridge and in the middle go to the left
(S) and at the end go left at the Gem receptacle (for a different Key). Jump
through the gap between the statue and the hill and go right around to jump up
in an opening in the rock. Use the Ruby Key there to open the door. Across the
bridge inside is a lever lifting the glass cover on the Thistle pedestal you
saw before.
2: Emerald Castle.
Go straight through the room with the three pedestals,
into a corridor and take a right, jump in the water and swim through the
opening at the back and up. Climb out and get the Medipack. Back to the
water and out of this pool, go to the right into the corridor and at the end
left, down the steps to a big pit. Jump to the ledge on the left side, then
take a running jump to the one with the flame, grab the edge and shimmy to the
back and drop down on a trapdoor.
Face
N and run off onto a block in the deadly water. Turn right and jump to the
trapdoors, the middle one will crumble, and go right into the alcove. Use the
switch and the trapdoors on the W wall, one is now changed to an elevator. I
jumped back to the block and then to the trapdoor on the opposite wall, onto
the elevator and then face S, when it is up jump/grab the ledge.
Jump
over the pillar where the flame has gone and make your way to the back (N).
There is another switch (spikes retract) and now you can make your way back to
the entrance. Go up the steps and straight to more steps up. Jump over the
deadly water (de-activated spike trap) and at the next pool take a running jump
with a slight curve to the right.
On
the left and right are two reach-in holes, as well as on the other side of the
pool. This opens the door on the E wall. But first go to the opening S and get
a Medipack. You could shoot the lion head W of the pool, but it will
only start a fountain.
First
Dragon Key.
Go
into the open door E and avoid the spikes, to the right you can find Flares,
and when you get to a small slope, look up and see a spiked boulder. Run down
and to the left to avoid it, watch out there are popping up spikes in that
passage.
At
the end drop down and use the switch. A gate in a pool opens, climb back up and
at the intersection look left, shoot the spiked ball and immediately side flip
so you won’t be killed by the blast. Follow though and you end up at the pool
with the open underwater gate that is on the right (S). Swim in and up, climb
out and use the switch on the wall (S). Watch the flyby, a block will also rise
in the room with the three pedestals.
Swim
back and get out straight ahead, go to the right into the corridor and get Dragon
Key #1 from the first room.
Second
Dragon Key.
Turn
around and climb the block that appeared N and jump to the ledge. Go up the
slope, watch out for the spiked boulders. In the next room the guide (Emissary)
is waiting. You can shoot the Beast on a ledge above (S side).
Go
to the S wall and left are cracks in the plants so you can get up to the ledge
where the Beast was. Jump up twice and use the switch you see there. Go to the
right and shimmy along the roof to the next ledge and use the switch there as
well.
The
doors downstairs open up (N), safety drop down and enter.
Timed
Blocks.
Go
up the stairs and to the right, into the opening there and then to the left up
the steps. A Beast guards this place, go down the steps and loop around to the
left to find a TIMED switch.
This
lowers a block way back, so side flip and run/jump straight (S) and watch out
for the spikes at the end. Around the corner on the right is another TIMED
switch this lowers a block on the wall to your left plus another one at the
wall on your left at the next balcony (SW). Jump over the balustrade and get to
it as soon as possible. Shoot the spiked boulder and avoid being blown up and
get into that passage. Go to the pool and swim to the other side and use the
TIMED switch to the right (NE).
Jump
back into the water, up the steps and go straight (S) at the T crossing go
left, then to the other side of the room (E), take a left, up some steps,
straight and down some steps and in the next room again take a left where a
block lowered in the passage. Go up the stairs and then go to the left at the
doors we have to open. Follow through and use the TIMED switch, roll and go
back, at the doors go straight and at the end is another switch you have to use
before the flames come back. Go back and now the double door is open.
Over
the Roofs.
Go
up and when you get to the big hall, turn around and hang, let go and grab,
shimmy left and pull up, use the switch to lower a block above you. Then shimmy
back and use the ledge-up jump. That lowered block is to the left.
Go
there and jump on it, face N and hang from the block, then do a ledge-up jump.
Climb up onto the roof and go to the end, jump into the opening there and over
the waterhole. Use the switch there, get back and down. Jump onto the elevator
tile and once you are high up, jump to grab the monkey swing. Swing over and
drop from the end onto a block below. Go over the roof, onto another block and
then into the opening on the right. Use the switch in there; watch the flyby
and then go out, to the front, safety drop down to the ledge below and jump
into the pool.
Leave
through the S arch and again a jump in the water (or get to the ground floor
using the block left). Get out and get Dragon Key #2.
Dragon
Key #3, Spike Balls and Wraiths.
When
you pick up the second Key, a gate opens nearby. Go to the W wall and around
the corner on the left use the ledge-jumps to get up, then back-jump to the roof
and shimmy to the right into the opening. Go straight and find a spiked boulder
on the right side. Stand well back and shoot it. Go in that passage, take a
right and around the corners is another spiked ball you need to shoot.
Three
wraiths show up, run back out and to the right and stand near the pit to get
rid of them. Back to the passage and follow through and find another spiked
ball. After shooting it, lead the wraiths to the pit and reverse your steps
Lava
Jumps.
Use
the switch in the last room to flood the wraith pit. Go back to the pit and
jump in the water. Use the underwater lever on the left (E) wall, then get out
of the pool. Go N and find the first open gate on the right (red light). Jump
over and slide, jump a couple of times over deadly pits and use the switch at
the end. Roll and jump back on the slope and slide/jump the slopes to get to
the entrance and go to the pool to get rid of the wraiths.
Go
N and this time a gate on the left opened up, shoot the lions tongue (you’ll
hear a faint rumble) and the gate behind you opened. Shoot the Beasts and go
straight to the back wall and use the switch here. More wraiths are set loose;
lure them again to the pool. Turn around and now you can jump up the block in
the central room because the spikes are gone (N). Jump up facing S and there
are 4 trigger tiles here.
Go
right around the room, triggering blocks and pick up the Flares, a small
Medipack, more Flares, and finally another small Medipack and
see the cover on the last pedestal go down. Get down to the ground floor. You
could leave N
Or:
you can make a detour for another Secret now. Go back into the left hand
opening W, to the second room and to the right hand wall (N). Get into the
crawlspace and go to where you see the green pool below, hang from the edge and
shimmy right. Pull up and follow that passage, you’ve been here before, but
then the blocks didn’t lower. Go straight, use the monkey climb to cross the
corridor and follow through. Drop down, shoot the beast and get Secret #2, a Secret Dragon. Climb the
ladder left and go back to the monkey climb, just drop down into the corridor
and go E to get the next Dragon Key #3.
Go to the opening N (left of the balcony) and place the
Gems you have. Then jump into the open door (N) and slide down into the next
level.
1: Dreams second time.
Watch the flyby, you are back at the lake with the 4
bridges. Go over the bridge and in the middle take a right (W) and get to the
next level.
3: Emerald Lake.
First we’ll make a tour of the place using switches.
Turn
right and jump up the walkway there to the end. Look down at the lake and jump
on that ledge, use the switch (#1) and see a spiked ball falling through a
trapdoor (for Key #3).
Go back to the start and take the bridge there (S). Keep going sort of straight and then take a right just before the central Tower with the fires. Go straight and at the NW tower go left around the pillar to use the switch (#2) raising a high block.
Go
back to the bridge and take a right, and just keep following the bridges to the
tower with the 4 pillars (SW).
Hop
down on a lower ledge W between the pillars, use the switch (#3) there, raising
a trapdoor. Climb up and go straight, jump over to the broken bridge E, take a
left, walk straight to the end of the stone ledge, jump down for another switch
(#3) raising a lower block.
Hop
back up and left over the bridge, pass the crossing and stop just before the
next island with the tower and a rock against the pillar. Jump (NE) to the
corner left and down to use switch (#4). Jump back to the bridge and take a
right, next crossing right again and go through the central tower
Collecting
the Dragon Keys.
Now
we have to go to the NW Island. Go to the back and climb the ladder through the
trapdoor opened with switch 4. Jump over to the SE and jump down SE, shimmy
around to the opposite (SE) corner. Jump over to the ledge with the emitter and
stand in the corner, take a run-jump straight and grab the roof, shimmy right,
pull up and turn around then another jump to the next roof and shimmy to the
back. Climb up the ladder, and around to the right to drop to the ledge. Shoot
the Beast E from here.
Timed
Burner and Trapdoors.
Jump
to the platform (E) and save before you use the Timed switch in the back. Pull
it when the emitter (N) starts to blow. Turn right and take a running jump/grab
to the emitter and from there to the roof. There is a trapdoor in the NW corner
so you can jump to the trapdoor at the next roof.
Jump
to the top and get Dragon Key #1. Face S and drop onto a wooden
platform. Drop down and climb down the ladder.
Go
over the bridge (E) and make your way to the SW tower. Once there go to the
pillar in the SW corner and behind it, there is a crack, grab it and jump up
higher. Jump the pillars and at the last corner is an elevator, get on it. Turn
to the right and run-jump to the next ledge (W). Get the Medipack, turn
around and make your way to the Gem you see a bit further (E). Grab Dragon
Key #2.
Jump
back and hang from the edge where the elevator is and drop/grab to get on it.
Then jump to the pillar and make you way to the ground floor. Looking to the E
you can see the next Dragon Key high up, so make your way there. It is the
island with the higher rock ledge next to the pillar (fore last island).
Climb
the ladder (E side) and get on the ledge, run jump and grab the ledge on the
pillar E, shimmy to a safe corner (right hand side) and hop over the spike trap
to the back. Climb the ladder a bit and make your way up the pillar by going
around and up where possible. On top turn right or left and slide backwards
down a sloped side and shimmy to a W side corner. Run jump with a curve over to
grab the pillar W and jump to the top for Dragon Key #3. Go back to the
bridges the same way you came here and go to the E.
Turn
left over the bridges to the N, via the building with the spikes to the house
structure N and once in take the first opening on the right.
Turn
facing NW and back flip onto the sloped side, jump with a curve to the left and
grab the ladder. On the top go to the other side and where the Emissary is, go
in and use the switch (#5) to lower a block in the building below. Go to the N
or S side, run onto the sloped lower part in the ledge, grab the edge as you
slide off and safety drop to the entrance of the building.
In
the W wall the left hand opening on the opposite structure is where that block
went down when you used switch #5.
Jump
to the flat part of the pillar in the lake and hop over the slanted corner to
the next flat part, one more jump over the corner and climb the ladder there.
Climb right around the corner and drop to the ledge. Around the pillar on the N
side is a Timed switch raising 2 trapdoors (E) so you can reach the roof of the
building E. Climb to the top and grab Dragon Key #4.
Detour
for a Secret: Drop down the E side twice and slide down to the ledge where the
ladder is. Go to the SE corner, look down and spot a sloped block just next to
the ladder. Slide down the left side of it and jump with a left curve, with
Ctrl in the end you’ll end up on the ledge along the E wall. Go right and pick
up Secret #3, a Secret Dragon. Go
further over the ledge to grab a Medipack and turn around. Go all the
way to the other end where a block will go down.
Use
the Dragon Keys.
Follow
this ledge; take the second bridge left to the central Tower. Right and left
you can see the receptacles for the Dragon Keys, shoot the black fences and
jump into each side to place two keys to raise two trapdoors and lower two
others. Watch out for those nasty oil lamps though…
The
Two Spirit Hands.
Go
S through the building, over the next island and climb the blocks left of the
pillar (switch #2 and 3), grab up to the ledge on the pillar and climb the
ladder on the S side through an open trapdoor (opened by a Dragon Key). On top
is the Spirit Hand #1.
Climb
back down, go to the N side of the ledge and time the spikes to run jump to the
trapdoor on the central building (raised by a Dragon Key). Stand left and jump
up to the ledge between the sloped blocks. Go forward and jump up left for a Medipack.
Go back on the lower ledge and look down the right hand N side to spot another
trapdoor (raised by a Dragon key). Hop down on it and jump over to the ledge N.
Climb the ladder through an open trapdoor (opened by a Dragon Key). Get the Spirit
Hand # 2.
Use
the Hands, the Dreams.
Climb
down the ladder and either stand on the SW corner to safety drop down to the
island losing some health or make your way back over the central building to
the far S pillar and climb down there (the spikes are deactivated).
Go to the E and to that building with the spikes and the
two corpses without hearts, place the two Hands in the holes and watch the cut
scene. Go to the building N and take the Dreams from the pedestal. The
exit opened up, so we’re done here. Go N to the entrance ledge, left and look
for the open door on the right. Slide down…
1: Dreams third time.
Go to the crossing of the bridges and take the right hand
side (S).
Place
the Dreams straight ahead. Turn right and go to the corner where a block
lowered (SW). Follow through and find the Emissary.
Emissary: The Thylmedykes must be destroyed. I will guide you to
them.
Lara: Exellent!
Emissary: Follow me through the dark cave and you will be save.
Go
inside and follow your guide once he comes in. Watch out for the pits in that
dark cave. Wait for him to open the door for you.
Emissary: Find the
Thylmedykes and destroy them!

All Preparations to get the Revolver.
Go
left around the pool and through the arch S, in the next room go left into the
first part of the pool in the next room and find a tunnel in the far right hand
corner in the water (SW), follow through and when you come to the next room, swim
with a U-turn on the right into the next tunnel. Swim in and go left and climb
out into a room with pillars. The pillar next to the pool (W) has a crack you
can use to get on top of it, pull up in a corner though.
Turn
and hop to the floor (W) where you can see a structure with a Revolver inside.
Go to the other end of the room (SE) and jump over (E) to the second pillar
from the right. Save at the Timed switch and use it, side flip left 3 times and
use the switch there to open a gate, side flip right before the burner starts
again. Go to the gate you opened in the SW corner.
Go
right around the corner and climb the block, stand back in the corner of the
walls and run jump onto that sloped block SW. Just slide a little bit and jump
to grab the top of the next block. Jump into the alcove ahead (S). Use the
switch to stop a burner in the other end of the room. Sidestep right to the
edge of the alcove and roll. Stand jump and grab the crack (NE) next to the
alcove. Shimmy all the way left passing a burner to the alcove where the burner
was before, Use the switch to raise a block in the other end of the room.
Choose
your path, either run jump a bit right to grab the crack in the dark pillar

you slide off and jump back (down key) to grab another alcove. Go right, and
jump to grab the crack in the opposite corner of the room, go left to an alcove
with a switch that will open a door on ground floor. Hop down into that pit
with water, turn around and climb out in front of the open door (S).
In
the lava rooms go right through the opening and jump to the right into that
alcove over the lava, use the crack to shimmy around to pull up in the next
alcove. Jump with a curve down into the next and run out with a curve to grab
the crack left of the opening or the opening itself W. Left around the corner

In the next room go to that gate left and it will open up, go through and drop into a room with a Torch puzzle.
In
this part of the room are two constant burning flames, go through to the next
part E, two burners going high. Pick up a small Medipack from the
pedestal right and a Torch from the pedestal left. Go to one of the
burners here and carefully ignite the Torch, go back to the other end of the
room (W) and ignite the two burners there so they will also start burning high.
You can drop the Torch. A block went down on the pillar near the entrance ledge
(SW), another block went up in that same corner on ground floor.
Get
up onto that corner block and jump to the pillar with the lever and use it. Do
a curved jump (SE) to get into the wider alcove and jump to the second pillar
with lever. Throw that and hop into the opening of the wall (E). Look up left
on the other side and jump to grab the monkey bars, go left around and drop to
grab the opening there. Hop onto the next pillar and shimmy around to pull up
in the corner where you can use the third lever. Use the alcoves NW to get to
the last pillar and use the lever; you’ll see a block go up. That’s to get the
Revolver.
Drop
down, go E to he other end of the room and through the now open gates, jump
over a pit to come to the green pool in the first room. To the right on a
pedestal is some Revolver ammo, then turn around and go right around the

want all secrets. Swim back through the tunnel and jump into the other pool and
swim to the first room.
Use
the Dragon Key, a Labyrinth for the Laser Sight.
Go
through the arch NW (the one on the right (N)) and left is the receptacle for
the Dragon Key. Follow through to the Labyrinth; we won’t mention where you
have to use Ctrl to get into openings with a low ceiling, you can judge the
jump yourself.
Jump
over to the right (N), then left and spot a lever in the distance, you can also
see a Beast there; you can shoot it from here with pistols if you turn Lara in
that direction. Turn around (E) and now drop down to a lower ledge between the

from the next ledge, jump back and turn left, hop around the corner and then
time the spikes to get to the ledges NW. Follow the higher ledges around right
and hop onto the pillar with the lever, shimmy to pull up in the corner where
you can use the lever and see a block go down nearby (SE). Jump in there with a
curve and at that moment a trapdoor will go up NE.
You’ll
have to jump SE and then left (N) to get to that trapdoor and from there to the
ledges NE. Jump to the ledge NE and follow through to jump over a gap and get
the Laser Sight. A block lowers somewhere. Jump back over the gap and
follow to the end of the passage, look S and spot the lowered block around the
corner left. Run jump and grab that ledge. Hop S and S again where you can go
left into the passage back to the green pools.
Optional
Detour: Now you could go for the final secret, go right and through the arch,
left and then into the pool, swim through the tunnel. Climb out in the next
room, go to the next pool (E) and into the tunnel right. Follow through to the

spike balls on the stairs on the right (E), shoot them from a safe distance and
go up the stairs after they dropped into the pit. Go up the stairs and just
before a slide down into a room, Save!
Equip
the revolver with the sight and slide down, duck behind that greenish block and
use tactics to shoot the emerald eyes out of the Giant head. Let him fire his
blots and then stand up while he is recharging, shoot the eyes.
Pick
up the Thistle and go back to the room with the pit.
Final
Battle; Kill the Thylmedykes.
Take
a right up the N stairs and use the Thistle around the corner. Go through and
right around the pool to the gate SE. Save before entering the next room and
better concentrate on shooting the two Beasts first while jumping around. Then
go for the Thylmedyke and shoot the other 3 too. There is Revolver ammo on
a pedestal in the back and a Medipack on another pedestal. Two of the
Thylmedykes drop more Revolver ammo and the last one a Dragon Key.
Go
to the ladder NW and climb up to the wall, go over the top to the other side
and place the Dragon Key to open a trapdoor. Climb back on the higher part and
up the ladder (face W). Off to the left, go through the passage to meet the
Emissary again.
Emissary: You did it! You destroyed the Thylmedykes!
