Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light is set in Aztec mythology. The eponymous guardian is Totec, an Aztec warrior, that guards the Mirror of Smoke from the evil god Xolotl. When Lara Croft discovers the mirror and it is subsequently stolen by Vasco, a local warlord, Totec helps Lara fight the evil curse of Xolotl that is unleashed.
There are many Aztec Relics_(GoL) throughout the game. Collecting them grants special abilities to the wearer.
