Kingdom - Secret #3 (Gold Skull) (Continued)

After making your way around the ROOM WITH GOLDEN SLOPES AND FOUR GOLD 'WATERFALLS' and jumping through the gold wall panel, as shown in the last section, you're now inside a small room with molten gold on the floor.

When picking up the next several items, be careful to walk only on the safe tiles directly below the smooth, gold squares on the ceiling. All other floor tiles are deadly molten gold.

Walk forward and take the flares (35).

Turn right and kill a leopard (16) that charges in from the next room.

Then carefully move around to the right, sticking to the safe tiles as you retrieve the small medi pack (36).

Return to the tile where you got the flares. Position Lara so the staircase is behind her and the wide opening where you entered is on her left. Take a running jump to the safe tile near the far wall.

Turn left and take another running jump into the alcove with SECRET #3, the gold skull (37). If you're having trouble setting up this jump, try this: Face the skull, sidestep to the right so Lara is nearly touching the wall, walk forward to the edge, which is slightly higher near the wall. Hop back once.

Then take the running jump.

Once you have the skull, turn around and take a running jump back to the previous safe tile.

Turn right, back up to the wall, and take another running jump back to the spot where the flares were.

Then walk around to the right, over the spot where the medi pack was, and into the next room. Climb the stairs...

...to the gold door, which is now open.

Slide down the ramp straight ahead (not the one on the right) to land on the flat ledge below.

Take a running jump across the gold stream. Climb onto the block straight ahead. Then pull up onto the ledge on the left.

The rightmost alcove on this ledge contains the exit ramp. To avoid injury in the long drop coming up, angle Lara a little to the left and jump forward onto the ramp.

Slide down facing uphill and grab the end of the first slope. Drop onto the gold slope below...

...and slide down a series of ramps onto the gold tile with the face at the bottom of the TREETOPS area. (Remember, you found some shotgun ammo here earlier.)

Once again, take a standing jump from the edge of the face tile onto the GOLD WALKWAY WITH THE TRAPDOORS.
