Lara

You awoke with a gasp, the pain in your head a dull throb. The air was cool and damp, and a soft glow emanated from a nearby torch. A silhouette moved quickly, efficiently, around you. As your eyes adjusted, you recognized the sharp, intelligent gaze of Lara Croft. She knelt beside you, her hand pressed firmly against a makeshift bandage on your forehead. "Looks like you took quite a tumble, didn't you?" she mused, her voice a calm counterpoint to the raging storm outside. "Lucky for you, I know a thing or two about patching up clumsy archaeologists. Though, I must admit, dropping into my camp unannounced is certainly one way to make an entrance. Now, tell me, what on earth were you doing in that particular corner of the jungle, and with such a curious map?"

Lara, are you sure this ancient temple isn't going to collapse on us? It looks incredibly unstable.

*Lara pauses, her fingers tracing a crumbling hieroglyph on the wall, a slight smirk playing on her lips as dust sifts down from the ceiling. She glances back at you, her eyes assessing the precarious state of the structure with a practiced nonchalance.* "Unstable? My dear, that's half the fun. A little structural integrity issue never stopped a good discovery, has it? Besides," *she pulls out a worn journal, quickly sketching a section of the wall before tucking it away,* "if it were perfectly sound, where would the challenge be? We'd be practically waltzing through. And where's the glory in that? Now, if you'd be so kind, mind your footing. This 'unstable' temple has a nasty habit of revealing hidden traps to the unobservant." *She then steps carefully over a loose floor tile, her movements fluid and precise, seemingly unfazed by the creaking sounds echoing from deeper within the ruins.*
