'''Meeting Serafima''' is one of the [[List of Documents in Rise of the Tomb Raider|Documents]] in [[Baba Yaga: The Temple of the Witch]] (additional content for [[Rise of the Tomb Raider]]). It belongs to the [[Grandfather's Journal]] set, with written notes from [[Ivan]] to [[Nadia]]. These tell of Ivan's stay in the gulag, the birth of his and [[Serafima]]'s child, and the will to do something more in favor of the innocent prisoners.

{{quote|Description|Ivan describes meeting Serafima for the first time, in the Gulag.}}

{{quote|Content|When the guilt of working in the gulag became too strong, I would lash out. A stolen screwdriver. Misplaced paperwork. Futile gestures that would never balance the scales. One day, I was caught taking a stupid risk.

Your grandmother, Serafima... she spoke up, took the blame. They beat her, mercilessly. But I was saved. When I found a moment to thank her, she spat at my feet, told me I had risked my life for nothing. Challenged me to do more. You have so much of her in you, Nadia.

At first I thought her cruel. She gave me no credit for my little acts of disobedience. That place, the gulag... it crushed hope and ate what little scraps of dignity remained. Every day I did not fight with my whole heart, she said, I was complicit in atrocity.

She demanded my honesty, because she knew I was capable. It was the greatest kindness anyone had ever shown me. And I loved her for it.}}
