Furnace of the Gods - Blue Cavern (Revisit)

In the last section, you made your way through a trapped passageway to re-emerge at the top of the BLUE CAVERN where you found the golden MASK earlier. Pull the switch on the square column...

...to open the double doors below.

Move to the left edge and take a carefully angled standing jump onto the ledge jutting out of the left side of the column.

Move to the end of this ledge and take a running jump to the ledge with the M16 clips (21) ahead on the left.

NOTE: If you haven't already picked up the M16 ASSAULT RIFLE in your travels, you'll get it here instead of ammo.

After making the pickup, move to the middle of the ledge where it slopes downward in a V. If you safety drop here, where the ledge is a bit lower, Lara won't take any fall damage.

Move past the skeleton and the pedestal where you found the golden MASK earlier.

You'll find the double doors you just opened in the far right corner of the cave.

Enter and pull the switch to open the next set of doors.

Then hang back as the Inuit warriors (1-3) take care of the 3 mercenaries (21-23) in the next room.

You can assist if you like, but be careful not to accidentally shoot the warriors if you want them to stay friendly. Naturally, if you've killed the warriors, you'll need to fight the mercs on your own.

NOTE: I'm not sure if the Inuit warriors can die in this encounter, but in any case, unlike the achievement/trophy "The End Doesn't Justify the Means" in Tomb Raider 2, the "Na Zdorovye!" achievement/trophy doesn't require you to keep all the warriors alive. You just can't harm them yourself.

Afterward, take 2 sets of Uzi clips and a small medi pack (22-24) from the bad guys' bodies.
