You have to initiate the two gates of Eye of the Serpent.
Lara has to deal with this riddle while searching for the Silver Box.
We have prepared a detailed solution to this puzzle below.
Note- Lara will be regularly attacked by enemies while solving this puzzle.
In the following description we focus only on the puzzle.
After you get off the water, follow the linear path to the upper part of the hall.
Reach the crank and stand by it.
Aim your bow at the central interactive structure with the serpent’s head as shown in picture 1.
You have to attach it to the crank.
The correct connection is shown in picture 2.
Now you’ve got the option to reach it and climb it (picture 2).
This will allow you to get to the top shelf that was not available before.
The upper construction with the serpent is boarded and you have to “release” it.
Return to the crank after a successful action.
This time, send an arrow to the just unlocked top structure (picture above).
Use the crank to start manipulating the upper structure with serpent’s head.
Connect it to the crank with a rope.
Start manipulating the crank.
A large gate will rise.
You will pass the first part of the puzzle.
Opening the second gate
Jump into the water and dive.
Go to the place where it’s possible for you to get off the water.
Attach it to the crank with a rope.
Start to turn the crank until the construction is in the position shown in picture 2.
The water will start to flow into a small tank and fill it with water.
Jump into created water tank and dive.
Lara will use her axe to destroy them.
Opening the second gate will switch a new cutscene.
This way you will pass the riddle.
