Tomb Raider: Legend

The plot opens with a flashback sequence showing nine-year-old Lara Croft travelling with her mother, Amelia Croft. The private aircraft carrying them catches fire and crashes into the Himalayas, apparently leaving them as the only two survivors. After taking shelter in the ruins of an ancient Buddhist monastery, Lara discovers an ornate stone dais holding a sword while searching for firewood. She then activates the ancient artefact by touching the giant stones surrounding the artefact. Very soon after, her mother comes into the room as a giant ring rises from the floor. When Amelia hears something in the light emitting from the circle, she suddenly gasps and pulls out the sword. The dais explodes and Lara watches in horror as her mother vanishes before her eyes.
