Follow this Tomb Raider: Underworld walkthrough for the 'Protected By The Dead' section, guiding you to all 8 treasures and the relic.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Head right to find the first treasure in a pot.
  2. 2
    Proceed forward until you reach a pole. The second treasure is in another pot nearby.
  3. 3
    Climb the pole, jump to the platform, and follow the path to an area with scaffolding. Kill the bats that emerge.
  4. 4
    Use the beams on the left to jump to a small balcony; the third treasure is located here.
  5. 5
    From the balcony with treasure 3, jump to a pole and swing to a broken ledge. The fourth treasure is in the corner.
  6. 6
    Make your way to the floor and go to the right wall. The fifth treasure is in a jar along this wall.
  7. 7
    Descend and climb the scaffolding on the right side of the room. Use the highest beams to reach another broken balcony. Pick up the healthpack, then jump to a pole, climb it, and jump to the next pole. Swing across to the other side and proceed through the doorway.
  8. 8
    Locate a pole in the right wall. Jump onto it, then climb the ledges on the wall to reach an alcove at the top containing the sixth treasure.
  9. 9
    Bring the pole with you. Continue down the stairs. The seventh treasure is in a corner after the first set of stairs.
  10. 10
    At the crossroads, go right and place the pole down. Head back the other way to collect a healthpack. Pick up a block and move forward to a pressure pad. Stand on it to open a gate, then throw the block into the room. Return to where you left the pole. Do not pull any levers yet. Pick up the nearby block and go down the other corridor, ignoring the path to the right for now. Continue on; when you reach another block, shoot the spiders that emerge. Take this block down the path to another pressure plate. Stand on it and throw the block through to the other side. Go back for the other block and repeat the process.
  11. 11
    Return to the lever room and collect the pole. Go up the stairs you were previously told to ignore. At the top, enter a balcony area. Insert the pole into the hole on the wall and use it to climb into an alcove containing the eighth treasure. Return to one of the pressure pads and throw it with the other three blocks.
  12. 12
    Back in the main area, place two blocks on the central pressure pad. This will ignite a fire and open gates to your sides.
  13. 13
    Face the flame and turn right. Take two blocks and place them on the pressure pad in the right corridor. This opens a small gate; crawl in to collect the relic.
  14. 14
    Return to the lever room and face the central structure. The levers are arranged as follows when facing them: 4 3, 1 2. Pull lever 2 twice to remove the first lock. Pull lever 4 three times to remove the second lock. Push the large lever to open the door, which operates on a slow timer. As soon as the door opens, go around the back of the levers and climb up the right side of the pillar. At the top, go right to climb onto the top platform. From here, run, jump, and grapple the hook.
Tips
  • Remember to bring the pole with you after finding the sixth treasure, as it's needed later.
  • Be mindful of the timer when opening the main door; move quickly.
