Relics: 0/0

(Note - Just before the level loads, you have the option of choosing between Jungle Heavy, Pants or Shorts. You can also select your secondary weapon to start with, however you have Mjolnir in your possession which is the most powerful.)

In the cut scene, Lara reaches Tisiphone, anchored off the coast of Thailand. The camera gives an overview of the upper deck and focuses on Lara who climbs the side of the ship.

Although this is Amanda's second ship, the layout is the same as the one in Thailand (God Of Thunder). Once again, you have to reach the stern and get inside the ship. Since you have Mjolnir with you (Thor's Hammer), use it to kill all enemies with one shot and have some fun. The Hammer is not visible in the Weapon Selection list in PDA, but it accompanies the two direct weapons (the Pistols and the secondary you have chosen). To equip the Hammer, press the Change Weapon key twice.

Using Mjolnir - When you use the Hammer by pressing the Fire button, it throws a blue energy bolt that blasts the targeted enemy. You can also use Precision Aim to target both enemies and objects. For example, if you shoot a fuel tank, it will explode killing the nearby enemies. If you have the Hammer drawn, by holding the Target Lock button and then press Interact, Lara will swat the Hammer on the floor, sending a kind of shockwave that destroyes crates and tanks and makes the enemies to lose their balance.

As soon as the level begins, equip the Hammer and destroy the crate to the left of the staring position (as shown in this screenshot) to find a Health Pack hidden in it.

Deck with stacked containres - Go down the stairs to reach the lower deck with the stacked containers. There are two mercenaries at the centre between the containers, but you will encouter three more as you explore the left and right hand side of the deck. However, the more you stay here, the more mercenaries you will have to kill. If you like using Mjolnir, stay on the deck and kill eight more mercenaries (13 in total). Otherwise, climb on the containers and leave the area.

Climbing to the upper deck - (See this page for the following sequence.) Locate the lowest container and climb on it. Turn to face the way you came (where you started the level) and jump to grab the grey container which is on top of the blue one. Pull up and pick up the Health Pack . Turn around and jump to grab the edge of the three stacked containers which are next to the one where you started the climbing. Pull up and jump to the next two containers. Then jump to the upper deck.

Upper deck - As in the other ship, it does not matter which corridor you follow, since both lead to the same place. You will have to kill four mercenaries if you visit both and three more in the area with the circular platform. When you reach this platform, two mercenaries come from the stairs, so kill them.

Helipad/ stern - Go down either flight of stairs to reach the helipad and pick up the Health Pack in front of the crates (as shown in this screenshot). Three mercenaries are hidding behind the crates beyond, so blast them off. Go down the stairs on either side to reach the stern where you will have to deal with three more mercenaries. If you go around to the other side of the ship and up the stairs and then come back, you will encouter three more mercenaries.

Inside the ship - When you are ready, approach the door that opens automatically. Get inside and go down the stairs on the left. The door at the bottom opens as you approach, so go through it and then right around the next two corners. Head down the next flight of stairs and go through the door that opens as you approach.

As you turn right around the corner, two mercenaries will appear at the other side of the hallway, so take care of them. Go where the men appeared and around the corner on the right. The next two men are hidding behind the crates, so give a shockwave to smash the crates, then deal with the threats. Follow the hallway and kill the mercenary at the bottom of the next stairs. Follow the hallway to the next junction. Kill the two mercenaries on the right and go up the stairs on the left.

In the cut scene, Lara enters the room where Natla is caged and demands to know where Helheim is. The Atlantean queen carves something on the glass and tells Lara that apart from the Hammer, she also needs an ancient ritual to perform at the same time. Lara has the Hammer and Natla knows the ritual, so neither of them can go to Helheim alone. Lara has no other choice but to work with Natla, however she makes clear to her than once Natla steps out of line, Lara will kill her.

When Lara brandishes the hammer to break the cage, she is stopped by Amanda who shows off the Wraith Stone that stole from Croft Manor. As the two former friends prepare to fight, the doppelganger steps in and knocks out Amanda. Lara tries to kill the doppelganger but it evades the bolts and escapes. Lara smashes the glass to set Natla free and as the pieces fall down, the camera focuses on one of them that has the coordinates of Helheim tha Natla carved before. "Meet you there" she says as she flies through the vent above.
