St. Francis' Folly is the fifth level of Tomb Raider 1. After finding the first part of the Scion in Peru, Lara follows Piere here to search for the second.

You will meet lions, gorillas, Pierre DuPont and bats.

It's your task to collect the four keys of Atlas, Neptune, Thor and Damocles anduse them to open to the door leading to the Colosseum.

Objectives

  • Access the second part of the monastery
  • Collect the Thor, Damocles, Atlas and Neptune keys
  • Unlock the 4 barrier door leading to Colosseum

Notes

  • Thor - is the red-haired and bearded nature god of thunder in Norse mythology and more generally Germanic mythology. He is the son of Odin and Jord. He carried a hammer, Mjolnir, as a weapon, and it is said when the hammer struck, lightening was produced.
  • Atlas - in Greek mythology was one of the primordial Titans. Atlas was the son of the Titan Iapetos and the Oceanid Klymene. During the Titanomcahy, a mythical war between the Titans and Olympians, Atlas betrayed the Titans and fought with Zeus and his fellow gods. After the Olympians' victory, most Titans were confined to Tartarus, but Atlas was instead condemned to forever hold up the sky.
  • Neptune - was the god of the sea, as well as horses and, as "Earth-Shaker", of earthquakes in Roman mythology. He carried a trident as a weapon.
  • Damocles - was an excessively flattering courtier in the court of Dionysius I of Syracuse, a 4th Century BC tyrant of Syracuse, Italy. He exclaimed that, as a great man of power and authority, Dionysius was truly fortunate. Dionysius offered to switch places with him for a day, so he could taste first hand that fortune. In the evening a banquet was held, where Damocles very much enjoyed being waited upon like a king. Only at the end of the meal did he look up and notice a sharpened sword hanging by a single piece of horsehair directly above his head. Immediately, he lost all taste for the fine foods and beautiful boys and asked leave of the tyrant, saying he no longer wanted to be so fortunate.

For an explanation to why this level is located in Turkey, see the notes section of Tomb Raider.
