Hail,,, in a rainforest,,, in summer,
Devereaux can't control what he's unleashed,
nor do I think he cares,
If he gets that last Peril Stone, this chaos is going to get a lot worse,
- Huh, - Oh!
The battle site is close,
Hmm,
- Zip, - Um, I'm figurin' it out,
I am figuring it out!
A museum would be a nice change of pace from the usual doom and gloom tombs,
This isn't a museum, It's a theme park,
Uh, I mean, this is it, The site of the battle,
This doesn't make sense, Does it?
Is the stone buried here?
Or hiding in plain sight?
Jonah, look for any clues that make sense of the tablet story,
Any mention of a black head or Stone of Power,
And keep an eye out for Devereaux,
Lara,
Battlefield, blah, blah, where three brothers met, blah, blah,
I feel awkward for you, Have you ever been to a theme park?
Theme parks are for cheap thrills,
- And over here is the magical Spirit Way, - Ooh!
According to legend,
the Spirit Way will guide you to the Yellow Emperor's tomb
right beneath the golden ancestry tree,
There you are,
Mm,,,
Hmm!
One more, Frank, Come on, I blinked,
- Do you mind if I just,,, - Oh, thank you, Oh, that's so kind,
Frank, the nice Australian woman wants to take a picture for us!
Aha,
If the tomb is beneath, there must be a way to access it,
A lever or,,,
It's papier-mâché,
I hate theme parks,
Mm!
Research for the café,
This is pointless,
We're going to move this way, This way!
Even though we celebrate this as the site of the Battle of Zhuo Lu,
no one knows where the actual battle took place,
Now, does anyone know the names of the three brothers?
- Uh,,, - Huangdi, the Yan Emperor, and Chiyou,
Uh,,,
Where is the real location of the battle,,, Hans?
Uh, um,,, it was lost to time?
Nothing is ever lost, Hans, It's just waiting to be found,
Jonah, we're leaving,
Devereaux is probably on his way to the real site by now,
Come on, Let's go,
Wait, Listen to this, It gets into the mythology,
Jonah,
You're always saying mythology is the gateway to truth,
Listen,
The Battle of Zhuo Lu begins with the eldest of three brothers,
Huangdi descended from the heavens
to give peace and prosperity to the mortal realm,
The most prosperous were those of his two brothers,
Yan and Chiyou,
But Chiyou soon became corrupted by his crown,
The crown was black and made of the hardest stone,
A symbol for all his many black deeds,
- The Greed Stone was black! - Sh!
Mm!
With the power of his black crown,
he created chaos in the tribes of his brothers!
Huangdi knew that if his youngest brother was not defeated,
then he would consume the world and spread chaos,
So Huangdi prayed to the Lady of the Nine Heavens
for the power to restore balance,
and, in return, she gifted him a golden dragon,
With the help of the golden dragon,
Huangdi was able to fight through Chiyou's storm,
To keep the black crown out of dangerous hands,
Huangdi fed it to his dragon,
Hmm,
All the tribes were now safe,
and Huangdi named himself the Yellow Emperor,
the first emperor to unite China,
After a hundred years of balance,,,
,,,Huangdi climbed aboard his golden dragon
and returned to the heavens,
But their mortal bodies could not ascend, and came crashing down to Earth,
Upon hitting the ground,
his dragon's body created a golden tree that blooms in all seasons,
The spirits of Huangdi and his dragon
became stars directly above the tree,
which astronomers now call Gamma Leonis,
Mmm! You were right, This was surprisingly helpful,
Zip, can you find the coordinates of Gamma Leonis in 2500 BCE?
- On it, - Mmm,
May I borrow this?
Brits, am I right?
Dropping you coordinates now,
It's a mountain range,
Any, um,,,
No landmarks, no nada,
Definitely no golden tree dragon,
- It's gotta be a metaphor, right? - Uh,,,
Look, this battle took place eons ago,
if it even did at all,
It's a myth,
What if it's all a metaphor?
Here, just off the coordinates,
Three mountains, Three brothers,
The place where three brothers meet,
Zip, we're gonna need a ride,
How's the menu research going?
Noting that pork baos don't digest well when combined with boba tea,
We're here,
No signs of Devereaux, Preparing to land,
What's after this?
What do you mean?
When we stop Devereaux, what's next?
Uh, I'm going back, redesigning the menu,,,
But what about you?
Back home to Croft Manor?
Or back to some other mission or extreme sport?
Croft Manor isn't home,
It's too full of ghosts for that,
You really have no beautiful memories there?
I do, That's what makes it so hard,
The ghosts of your father and Roth don't haunt that house,
They haunt you,
You're grieving,
Running yourself ragged
is not going to make that pain go away,
But I promise you, Lara,
everything you want is on the other side of letting go,
You hold on to the pain because you understand it,
It's where you think you gather your strength from,
That's why you'll stop him, Devereaux,
Because, deep down, you know it's not true,
You know there's something stronger than pain,
Do I?
If I had the Peril Stones when you and I went after Trinity,
I might've,,, I would've,,,
Mm,
No, you wouldn't,
You're not cut from the same cloth as Devereaux, or Roth, or your father,
You're something else,
What am I?
You'll know it last,
That's how it always works,
All the writings say Huangdi was buried with the Black Stone,
We're looking for a tomb, a temple,
This is a needle in a haystack,
Hmm,
Lara!
Hmm,
There's more,
It's the Chinese Zodiac,
Aha!
"The 12 animals of the Chinese Zodiac
were chosen in a contest known as the Heavenly Gate Race,"
Ah, that actually makes sense,
Yellow Emperor dude dies and becomes a star,
The way to his body has to do with the stars,
It's a puzzle,
What was the order in the race? Who won first?
It's a kids' book,
It says everyone won equally and ate ice cream,
I got you,
Comin' in first in the Great Heavenly Race is the rat!
Closely followed by the hoof man himself, the ox, in second place,
Ox, Ox, Where,,, Ah!
Pouncing in on third is the tiger!
Comin' in hot at the fourth is rabbit!
The dragon swoops in at fifth,
Wait, How did a rat and a rabbit beat a dragon in a race?
Let's argue dragon athletics later,
Sorry, Sorry, sorry, Snake, horse, goat,
monkey, rooster, dog,
And comin' in last but not least is the graceful and delicious pig,
Well then, shall we take the yellow brick road?
We are not in China anymore, Toto,
Uh,,, the,,, the thing about,,,
The thing is that, uh,,,
Huh,,, Um, yeah,
You're in Mongolia,
And I'm freaking out!
Oh! Teleportation of atoms at this level
has never been achieved,
This is earth-shattering!
Or soon will be,
You know, this is really demoralizing,
We killed that puzzle, How did he find it first?
The more relevant question is, how do we stop him?
Could really use one of your crazy and reckless ideas about now,
Oh,
Bloody strong bark!
Lara?
I heard gunfire,
I'm all right,
I don't see Devereaux,
It looks,,,
Like a dragon,
"In greed,
one accepts the false and loses the real,"
"This is chaos,"
And I thought kite surfing would be the highlight of my day,
Hmm,
Thousands of people, Devereaux!
You'll kill thousands if you go through with this!
Have you seen the storms?
We need balance to survive!
What do you know of balance?
I know this makes you no different from the Light,
There has to be more beyond the grief,
This,,, this can't be all there is,
Fire and revenge,
Aren't you sick and tired of being sick and tired?
Hmm,
I am,
That's why
I must see this through,
Devereaux, no!
No!
Look at you!
Without revenge and anger driving you, you are nothing!
Lara?
Lara!
Talk to me, damn you! Oh,,,
Oh God! He's here,
No!
Jonah,
Jonah,,,
Promise me something,
Don't make the same mistakes he did,
If this is the life you've chosen,
don't do it because you're running away from the things that are hard,
The people we love are the treasure you will never find in a tomb,
You're not cut from the same cloth as Devereaux, or Roth, or your father,
You're somethin' else,
What am I?
You'll know it last,
That's how it always works,
Jonah,,,
