After escaping the pit, I reunited with Jonah and helped him remove a parasite before heading toward a nearby village. We navigated a dangerous cliffside together and worked to repair a divided bridge using a complex mechanism.
After fighting the cougar in the pit, I finally found a way to get out of there. It looked like I was getting very close to another wreckage of our airplane that had crashed in the jungle.
I had to try a very risky jump towards a dead tree branch that was hanging over a steep drop. From there, I fell through the side of the wrecked plane and finally found my climbing axe. This discovery made Lara very happy, as she felt incomplete without her favorite tool
Right after that, Jonah appeared from the trees, and both of them got very happy seeing each other alive after the crash. They hugged each other first to celebrate their survival in this dangerous environment. It was a brief moment of peace and friendship in the middle of a very difficult and scary situation.
It looked like Jonah got a parasite into his skin during his time alone in the jungle. He had been trying to take it out, but he couldn't do it, so Lara helped him with the painful task. She moved carefully to ensure he was okay before they prepared to move on.
Then we had to continue our journey ahead through the thick plants and trees. We noticed there was a place that seemed to be a small village with living souls just a short distance ahead of our position. Seeing signs of civilization gave them both a lot of hope that we might find help soon.
We had to pass through this very risky edge on a high cliffside to stay on the right path. Jonah was the one getting scared all the time because of the height, but Lara was actually the one who almost fell down. Fortunately, Jonah reacted fast and helped her back up.
Then we reached this large bridge that was divided right in the middle, making it impossible to cross. I had to look around the area for a way to join the two sides together again.
I climbed up a slippery water tower and I found a lever there that I could interact with to move the ancient machinery. I grabbed the handle and pulled with all my strength, hearing the old gears begin to grind and turn for the first time in years.
After pulling the lever, the water tower started releasing a heavy flow of water into a large bucket. This bucket acted as a weight which was connected to the mechanism designed to join the bridge.

It sound like a huge relief to have the climbing axe back. Lara feels so much more capable once she has her tools, especially after that intense fall through the plane wreckage.
Yeah, getting that axe back changes everything.
Seeing Jonah and Lara hug really highlights the bond they have. In a jungle this dangerous, having someone you can trust makes all the difference for survival.
That scene added some warmth in the middle of all the danger.
