Seeing how they attack a woman, Kurtis decided to help her and killed the assassins. The woman introduced herself to be Lara Croft. Looking for clues they visited Von Croy's dig, there they met Margot Carvier who directed them to Prague, where Von Croy had met with Eckhardt several times. On their way there they were attacked, and the last of the Obscura Paintings was stolen from Lara. Kurtis saved Lara's life doing CPR on her.
