action

Set about six to twelve months after the events of A Thief's End , the story centers on the adventures of female protagonists Chloe Frazer and Nadine Ross, who have to reluctantly work together to track down a fabled Indian artifact, the tusk of the deity Ganesha . This is in the hands of the warlord Asav, the antagonist of the game. During the expedition it turns out that Samuel Drake, Nathan Drake's brother, is working with Chloe and that this should distract Asav with false information. Asav finds out, however, and takes Sam hostage. When Chloe and Nadine finally track down the tusk, Asav tied them up and almost killed them. However, the two manage to escape together with Sam and chase after Asav, who has exchanged the tusk for a bomb. He would like to explode these in a city in order to trigger a civil war in India, because he had "divine blood" and the rebels to which he belongs are supposed to recapture the country. Chloe and Nadine manage to divert the train on which the bomb was loaded and destroy the train and the bomb. Asav dies in the process. They want to hand over the tusk to the Indian Ministry of Culture for a finder's fee.
