Deep within the second cave, navigation required extreme caution to avoid traps that threatened an instant death. After reaching an underground temple, word arrived from Jonah that Trinity forces were closing in when I had to get to a pyramid in the caves.
After surviving the underwater section with much hardship, the search for the temple continued. This was the specific site Dominiguez was looking for within the depths of the second cave.
The path forward was filled with lethal traps that could kill in an instant. Being incredibly careful was the only way to survive the oppressive darkness of these caves.
I finally reached an massive underground temple and began the climb toward the top of a pyramid. Jonah gave me a heads-up that Trinity was already blasting their way in, so speed became essential.
After jumping onto a bell platform, I discovered a heavy cart. I broke an opening in the debris and pushed the cart through so it could serve as a vital weight for the mechanism.
Without that cart, further progress would have been impossible. With the weight in place, I was able to climb to a high platform and jump to a liftable ladder to reach the other side of the ruins.
Standing next to a post, I loosed a rope arrow at a distant coil to create a bridge. I then climbed across the rope upside down to close the distance to the pyramid's main structure.
After reaching the far side, I jumped onto another bell platform to continue the ascent. However, the final platform I needed access to became stuck the moment I added my weight to the current mechanism.
