It would seem there's similarities between our two worlds, or maybe it's purely coincidence.  Either way, I am glad we were able to put a stop to this whole affair before more people were lost to these madmen.  I might be a tomb raider, in it for the glory and to give to the world answers to our ancient past, but I still tend to get into trouble with the locals or other treasure hunters, mercenaries and the like.  A girl's gotta defend herself and learn how to play rough."  She finished with a grin, doing a more thorough search of the area while she talked, having gone off on one of her rants which said much for her knowledge and experience already despite her young age.  She'd learn and experience far more before this was all over, and despite the grim start to it all, she was having the best day of her life.
