Join Nate and Sully as they race against Flynn and Lazarevic to find the Cintamani Stone in Uncharted 4: A Thief's End. Your complete walkthrough awaits!
Alright, let's dive into the "Among Thieves" section of Uncharted 4. This is where things really kick off with Nate and an old acquaintance, Harry Flynn, breaking into the Istanbul Palace Museum. Their target? A specific clay oil lamp that's supposedly linked to Marco Polo.
So, here's the deal with that lamp: Marco Polo set sail from China with a massive fleet, like 600 people on fourteen ships loaded with treasure from Kublai Khan. A year and a half later, only one ship and eighteen passengers made it to Persia. Polo wrote everything down, but he never spilled the beans on what happened to the rest of the fleet and everyone on board.
Turns out, that lamp is a clue! It shows that Polo's fleet got smacked by a tsunami near Borneo, and the real treasure they were carrying actually came from Shambhala. Nate figures if the cargo was from Shambhala, maybe the legendary Cintamani Stone is still there. But just as he's about to make a move, Flynn, being Flynn, betrays him. Nate gets nabbed by the Turkish police and spends three months in the slammer.
Luckily, Sully and Chloe (yeah, an old flame of Nate's) bail him out. Now, the mission is to track down Flynn. He's teamed up with some shady client named Lazarevic, and they're both hot on the trail of this "Buddhist holy grail" – a massive raw sapphire that's worth a fortune, easily hundreds of millions of dollars. Your job is to follow the breadcrumbs, which will eventually lead you into the Tibetan mountains, to a monastery, and hopefully, the entrance to Shambhala itself.
