Begin at the Beginning

Lara sighed softly tucked away in her booth, trying to be as separated from all the rooms occupants as possible. She disliked bars. The loud noise, overpowering smells of alcohol, sweat, and cigarette smoke never failed to give her a headache. If she hadn't been meeting someone for information on something called "The Divine Source" her father had been mentioning in his journals she wouldn't be here at all. The last time had been with Sam, back before Yamatai and the horrors that followed, before Lara broke them apart with her refusal to leave what happened behind. Shaking her head to clear her thoughts she looked to the clock above the bar door. It was just about time for them to arrive. Lara just hoped they had better information than the conspiracy theorists she found online. Whenever the subject of eternal life came up, weird people crawled out of the woodwork.
