Theme: Andes
The situation was complex, they had to cross the Andes to reach the secret tomb of the last Illuminati, the one who kept the secret to be able to use the skull key (the one that had the ability to revive the dead and gave access to the other world). The latitude and longitude told Henry that the place was beyond the Andes. So he embarked there.
It was an expedition of 5 people: Lara, Mario, James, Lartimer and Henry.
They decided to go by car because Mario and James had a panic about airplanes, so the trip from Mendoza (Argentina) to the Andes (Chile) would take about 4 hours.
They boarded the comfortable truck and got ready to enjoy the journey, they had paid an expert driver who knew the route.
After about 45 minutes, a tremendous crash was heard in the front of the truck, then the driver lost control and they began to slide down a ravine full of plants and rocks, until they collided with a tree, leaving the engine of the truck.
Van smashed and everyone unconscious for a few minutes.
The first to wake up was Henry
- Shit, what happened? - realizing t hat they had just suffered an accident - James, Lartimer, Lara, Mario! -None answered him, and he saw how his faces were full of crystals and wet with blood.
He took their pulse and then realized that there was a strong smell of gasoline and the truck was on fire.
Without wasting time, he unfastened his seat belt to realize that the driver had passed away.
He quickly removed his companions and arranged them away from the accident, as he could because he had a hurt leg.
The others only had cuts, except for Lartimer, who had a crystal embedded in his right arm. And he was the Illuminati specialist guide. Henry also knew the subject, but he was not as dedicated as Lartimer.
He quickly realized that the tires on the truck had nails driven into them, and he knew right away that this was a trap.
He think : we are 45 minutes from the city, I must ask for help, the phone!, and when he was about to get it out, he immediately heard a voice behind him that said:
- Don't even think about it, Henry, turn around slowly and hand over the Map.
