The Seraph

Seraph

The Seraph is an artefact Lara finds in Tomb Raider II aboard The Deck of the sunken Maria Doria.

This artefact was the reason why the Maria Doria sunk. The father of Brother Chan was responsible for the sinking. They wanted to prevent the artefact from being used by Gianni Bartoli. The Seraph can be used to open a secret door in Barkhang Monastery in the Tibetan Foothills. Behind the door lies a vast complex of catacombs where a treasure called the Talion is kept.

The Seraph had been stolen centuries ago. The monks tried to keep the treasure concealed with prayers, till it fell into the hands of Gianni Bartoli.
