Tomb Raider Page #2

That was dad's?

Yes, Miss Croft, according

to Richard's will...

In the event of his death,

I was to give it to you.

Karakuri.

Japanese puzzle.

And technically speaking,

you are meant to

sign the papers first.

I have never understand your father's

obsession with those things.

Wouldn't believe how many of

these were lying around the house.

There was gonna be some purpose with...

The first letter from

my final destination.

But he didn't leave a letter.

THE FIRST LETTER FROM

MY FINAL DESTINATION.

- If you'll excuse me.

- Lara...

IN THE MEMORY OF LORD RICHARD CROF 1963-

My final destination.

The first letter.

What the...

ALEXANDER IVANOV.

- JAMES FENG, STEWART JOHNSON.

- Dad...

What were you up to?

PLAY ME.

Hello sprout.

I knew I could trust you

to solve my puzzle.

Unfortunately, if you are

watching this tape then...

It means that I must be dead.

It will be obvious to you by now...

that there was more

to my life than just...

board rooms and business deals.

Things that I could not

tell you about before.

When your mother died,

grief nearly destroyed me.

I began searching the

world desperate for a...

the hint of another realm.

The proof that the supernatural is real.

Anything...

to feel her with me again.

I made caught a

hobby of it, sprout.

Now...

I need you to do me a favor.

I need you to burn all my

research on the Himiko project.

Just burn all of it,

the notebooks, the tapes, everything.

It's very important. If it falls

into the wrong hands, then...

it could be catastrophic.

So please, do it straight away.

I know you hate

being told what to do,

but, please promise me that.

I hope you never have

to see this tape,

but if you do...

You found my secret calling.

I hope you find yours.

Dad loves you.

HIMIKO:

October 5th.

They call Queen Himiko,

the mother of death.

All the stories about her end in

rivers running red with blood.

Bewitching people,

controlling minds.

Spreading death and destruction

with just the touch of her hand.

The bloodshed only ended

when her own Generals...

buried her alive in a tomb.

Sealing her away from the outside world

on an Island no one could reach.

History has erased its existence.

The Lost Island of Yamatai.

I'm certain this is the place.

July 29th, 2011.

I finally found the Captain

willing to take me to the Island.

I must get there

first to ensure...

her powers will never fall

into the wrong hands.

That amulet was given

to my father...

by Emperor Showa of Japan.

Right, right.

Well...

- This ain't from Japan.

- You're correct.

Emperor Showa was given

it by the grand son...

of the former empire of Maratha.

Maratha?

You had me laughing, isn't?
