Story:
The lost city of Atlantis is the most infamous legend of a lost city amongst archaeological circles. Having completed the challenge of visiting this, the most well-known of lost cities, Lara has now turned her attention to other similar legends. Her curiously is captivated by the Middle East’s legend of a lost city, known as Ubar or Atlantis of the Sands. This once grand ‘city of towers’ is said to have disappeared beneath the desert sands, and its location is now unknown.

One time British archaeologist T. E. Lawrence, better known as Lawrence of Arabia, is said to have planned an expedition to find the lost city, however, his plans never came to fruition, as he was tragically killed in a motorcycle accident in May 1935, before he could mount an expedition. Through her many contacts in archaeological circles, Lara has acquired an old diary of Lawrence, in which he records his ideas about the location of Atlantis of the Sands. As she reads, Lara grows hungry to follow Lawrence’s footsteps and to succeed at the expedition that he was never able to attempt. Also described by some as the lost city of gold and frankincense, what hidden treasures might lie within Ubar? Lara sets off for the Middle East to begin her quest for Atlantis of the Sands, determined to become: Lara of Arabia.
