She knew of a secret chamber under the main hold of the ship, but when finding it a bad surprise awaited her. The treasure was gone and she found Chase's calling card.

Characterization
Chase is similar in characterization to Alex West from the first Tomb Raider film.
Lara describes him as "the most irresponsible, irascible, egoistical man ever to walk the earth". She also regards him as the only person remotely equal to her when it comes to finding the unfindable.
