As soon as the level begins, kill 2 natives with blowguns on the stairs to the right.

You may be able to avoid their darts by turning toward the stairs and then side flipping from left to right as you shoot.

Once they fall, go up the steps past them. You'll then spot another warrior wielding a blowgun on the ledge above. If you advance slowly with pistols drawn, you may be able to target him before he can target you.

Then climb up to where he was standing.

Follow the stairs to the top, taking out a fourth warrior on the way up. If any of their poisoned darts strike Lara, try to get through the whole encounter before healing so you don't waste medi packs.

Notice the concealed door high on the wall above the bend in the stairs. There's a secret behind it, but you'll need to return for it later.

For now, continue all the way to the top of the stairs and go through the crawlspace.
