Level

Walkthrough by manarch2
After the starting cutscene drop into the pool and swim in the far S chamber.
Open the underwater door and follow the tunnels (passing a self-opening door)
until you arrive at a dead end. Pick up the Gymnasium
Key, turn around and spot an opening in the upper S wall. Get out of
the water here and watch the cutscene. Head up the S stairs into a hall. Use
the lever in the SW corner to open a door somewhere else and return to the pool
room. Use the Gymnasium Key in the NE passage to open the door and enter the
next area. Watch the scene. Behind the left wooden structure in the S is a
closed door. To open it move the structure three times E below the shield.
Enter and use the timed lever to open the E door in the previous courtyard.
Dash in the new area (take a rolling back flip during the cut scene, run
outside and angle to your right while avoiding the obstacles). Climb on the
central structure and pick up an oversized Spear.
Now enter the SE door you opened with a lever earlier and pick up the Old Sword in the garden. Head back out and
spot an S passage outside where you can open a door with the Old Sword.
Enter and climb the ladder on the W wall. Backflip into the upper room. There
is a Greek alphabet puzzle; near the NE corner you can find a pushable vase. Lara's
backpack has the letter Λ (L - Lambda - Lara) written on it, so search for
the letter on the puzzle and place it there. Actually there are two Λ
on the board but the one in the NW corner is not correct. When done
correctly a key can be seen in the room below. Before getting down head through
the middle of the red curtains S into a hidden chamber, pick up the Drachmae for Secret
#1. Head out, climb down the ladder and pick up the Old Oikos Key. Head to the outside area, then
back into the W pool area and then N, place the Old Oikos Key to open the gate.
Dive into the pool to pick up the Damocles Sword
(a weapon), then climb out again and head back into the pool room. Before doing
anything else return into the S hall and search for a large vase in the middle
E alcove. Shatter it and pick up the Scroll for Secret #2. Examine it:
“Demeter, goddess of the wheat and the harvest, the creator of the season's
cycle. Persephone, Demeter's daughter and goddess of the earth, personified the
life's rebirth in the spring, after the winter desolation.”
Now you have to return all the way to the courtyard with the gladiators.
Shatter the dead tree SE and pick up Demetra's
Apple. Now head to the wooden structure in the SW corner, stand at
its N side – facing S – and place the Spear on it. A door back in the pool room
opens – head back there and up W in the newly opened chamber. Place Demetra's
Apple on the little blue and white box (facing W) to light the fire in the vase
nearby. Pick up a Torch off the pile
and light it on the vase. Now head out of this room, back in the pool area head
into the N area, run around the other pool and light the two vases to open the
blue gates. Enter the chamber and pick up the final item in front of the portal
to finish this level.
