Description
After her return of Prague, Lara Croft receives a visit. Is it possible that Kurtis Trent is not dead? Don't miss this sequel to the unfinished videogame Tomb Raider: Angel of Darkness. TRAOD sequel. LCxKT. Many thanks to Roxy Trent for being my faithful and hardworking beta reader and helping me to fix this messy translation. In The Golden Seal, Lara finds out that Kurtis' still alive, apart from the Chirugai's activity, thanks to a visit from Marten Gunderson, Cabal's head of mercenaries. He reveals her that Karel, as the last one of his keen, is bounded by a supernatural fate to his ancestral enemy, the last one of the Lux Veritatis, which is Kurtis' himself. They can't fight each other because if one dies, the other will too, and so the natural equilibrium of the world -good and evil- will be restablished. There's only a way to break this binding, which is to master the True Option, a clue that, handled by a chosen woman -the so-called Amazon-, can decide which one lives and which one dies. Grateful for what he did for her at the Strahov, Lara decides to help him so he can survive to his doomed fate. She contacts him at Cappadocia and they start a quest for the True Option which will lead them through Turkey, Romania, Egypt and, finally, Greece, always guided by Kurtis' changing ring, which leads the way: The Golden Seal. This journey will reveal Lara not only she's the foretold Amazon, but also will drag her through feelings she's not comfortable with: hate, temptation, and love. Cover image by Jesús Osorio and inner illustrations by Kaworu, Scheroff and Carola Funder, who made them for the fanfic. Also, some official and fanmade renders -mention to Ash Kaprielov, Caesum, Moebius and many others I don't know or I don't remember- and original TRAOD concept art. If someone feels I've not credit his/her image, please contact me. Not my intention to steal art of anyone.
