It takes place inside the Scavenger's Den, the first location of the game and even continues a bit into Coastal Bluffs, the area outside the den, where Lara escapes to.

Story

Main article: Tomb Raider 2013 (Story)

When Lara regains conciousness after the storm and the Endurance being shipwrecked to Yamatai, she finds herself tied in a bundle suspended upside-down from the ceiling inside a cavern.

Cutscenes

Lara is being dragged along Scavenger's Den and eventually she's hanging on the ceiling alongside other similar-looking cocoons, struggling to get free and screaming for help.

After succesfully setting the cocoon on fire, Lara falls down onto a sharp spike, which punctures her side.

As the injured Lara stumbles forward in the Scavenger's Den, she arrives to an altar. Seeing the fate of the unfortunate person there, Lara gets scared: "Oh god, no... What is this place?"

Lara crawls into a small space on the wall, and a Scavenger suddenly jumps behind her and grabs her legs. Lara screams "Let go! Get off me!" and struggles to get free. The Scavenger tries to tell her to stop fighting "Stop! Stop struggling! Stand still!" After Lara breaks free, the opening crumbles shut, leaving the Scavenger to the other side. The Scavenger shouts behind the rubble: "Come back! Come back! I'm just trying to help you!" Lara sighs: "That was close. Oh shit, that was close..." The Scavenger's voice echoes in the cave: "Come back! Come... Come back! Come on!"

Escaping the crubling Scavenger's Den, Lara quickly crawls into an opening just below a big boulder, which omniously slides down a bit. Scavenger grabs her legs again. Lara yells "Let go, you bastard!" while stuggling. The Scavenger replies "I want to help you! Help you!" Lara kicks him off and the boulder falls down, crushing the Scavenger.

End Cutscene

Lara frantically crawls out of a small opening in the rock wall, to outside of the Scavenger's Den. Exhausted, she stubles a bit as she takes a look at where she is. In sunset she looks at the wreckage surrounding the coastline.
