Before proceeding, ensure Lara is wearing the Serpent Guard outfit. This is required to access the ritual area. Successfully completing this mission will reward you with the Heart of the Eagle (Bow).

Follow the mission marker to the Abandoned Village. This is where the ritual is performed. Upon arrival, a guard will guide you to the ritual site, leading directly to your objective.

As you move closer to the girl, a cutscene will trigger, revealing the situation. Immediately after the cutscene, you will need to engage in combat with the guards guarding the area. Be prepared to fight and clear the enemies effectively.

Once the guards are defeated, make your way back to the island where you originally accepted this mission. This will conclude the “Stop the Ritual” quest and complete your objectives in this segment of the game.

By following these steps, you will advance significantly in Shadow of the Tomb Raider and uncover more exciting challenges in The Hidden City.

It all began in the ’80s when I was just 7 years old. Starting with basic arcade games, I soon delved into titles like Loom and Monkey Island by Lucasarts. Throughout the years, as I indulged in more and more games, I consistently sought clear guides to swiftly navigate my gameplay. Now, it’s my turn to contribute back to the community.
