Escape from the Elder God Chamber

This entry regards the second level of Defiance ; for entries in the Dark Chronicle, see Dark Chronicle (Defiance)

Chapter 2: Escape form the Elder God Chamber, also known as Chapter 2: Raziel - Underworld, was the second level of Legacy of Kain: Defiance. It followed Raziel as he attempted to escape from the Elder God in the 'Underworld' and reach the Material Realm.

Plot
Chapter 2 showed the fate of Raziel following the conclusion of Soul Reaver 2, where in his weakened state, Raziel had returned to the Elder God in the depths of the 'Underworld'. Following a debate regarding Raziel's motivations for his defiance of the Elder (and his apparent "cowardice"), Raziel feigned submission and 'accepted' his role as a servant of the Elder.

Like Chapter 1 (and the beginning of Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver), the initial 'Underworld' areas served as a tutorial for Raziel and his unique abilities; highlighting basic jumping and Gliding, Checkpoints, Soul Devouring, Wall Climbing and basic Combat. After escaping from the Elder into the Spectral Realm, Raziel discovered that his restraints had merely been relaxed, as the Elder would no longer provide Planar Portals for Raziel to enter the Material Realm. Investigating his surroundings, Raziel was able to Phase Through a set of bars to enter the Main Cemetery.
