Once the groups had walked into the pillar, they were not burned, though the flames felt as if they were pushing the three towards the end. Once they reached the end they would see, First would be what seemed to be a giant flaming orb, chains would be wrapped around it though if one was able to get a bird’s eye view of it would notice the chains was wrapped in the shape of a pentagram. that seemed to take up about a fourth of the room. Second would be that the room was larger than the first room they were just in and that there was a moat filled with lava on the outer ring of the room besides from the entrance and exit.. Third would be the three pillars that seemed to trap the orb in the middle, wrapping around the pillar would be what seemed like stairs which circled up to the top. On top of each pillar would be a fairly large blue gemstone. And lastly a large door in the back which has a picture of a flaming demon, the most noticeable feature on the picture would be slots for 3 shards to fit into the chest forming a triangle. On the horns would be small gems 10 on each side. the flaming words that started forming in front of the three again.“For the ones who knew the legends and picked correctly, You have passed the first trial.” Once the words vanished more would quickly form. “Welcome to the room of eternal flames A sacred room where flames never die. Burning forever until the end of time. Those touched by the flames can only extinguish them by leaving the room, or solving the puzzle.” Once the words vanished they would see 20 mid tier elementals form, floating on the moat. As the room was being filled more words of fire would float in front of them. “Entering the room shall start your next trial. In here you must find your own way through the door. Leaving this room means you forfeit your right to continue. Realization shall be your key. Perception shall be your path. Speed shall be your shield. With that we wish you luck. The trial of wisdom will now begin. Once the words vanish the flames around them will vanish as the guardians wait for the challengers to enter. Mid-Tier Fire elemental

Esper looked at the room quietly, observing the events and happenings play out in front of the trio. He admitted he was skeptical the simplest answer was correct with the first puzzle but this one was more concerning. After he looked around and spoke at last.
"So...ten elementals to either side, ten jewels in a horn." he says, then looking at the slots in the chest. "Three keys. Speed is important." he says, then pausing and looking at the orb in the middle.
"So my theory is this. The three keys on the pillars must be put into the door, that much seems clear. I would venture to guess that should we only put one or two in at a time, it'll cause a reaction with the elementals on the sides, ten floaters to ten gems. However, pulling all three of the gems out on top of the pillars will likely cause what binds that fire spell to become unstable and grow, explode, or otherwise not just sit there harmlessly. So the best way to go about it is probably to take them out and put them in the wall as quickly and instantly as possible.
Or alternatively, touching one of the gems will trigger one of the lines, a second the other line, and the third causes the orb to destabilize, and putting the gems in disables the floater lines. Hard to tell which...end result is the same, move them from point A to point B almost instantly."

Listening to Esper talk, Gabriel would take a look at the room and the words he read earlier, “Though it makes sense, what about what we read. It said flames in the room never die, I doubt they would put that in just for show.” Gabriel continued to look at the different parts of the room. “We’d have to get up to the pillar and back down safely also. This whole thing seems a bit too simple.” Gabriel scratched his head as he waited to see if Yuki or Esper had any other ideas.

Yuki watched as the words appeared once again. Each line after the first she looked at it trying her best to figure out what it could all mean. Though there was one good thing about the whole thing was if there caught on fire it would be put out by either leaving the room or solving the puzzle though both options were not to her liking either way. Seeing the elementals she gave a small wave to them a bit shy like as she watched the next set of words appear.
Once the words disappeared she listened to both what Esper and Gabriel were saying. “What if there move in a pattern.” She said thinking out loud as she placed carefully placed the new weapon in her bag knowing that it would grab onto her clothes inside but right now it would be safer there only the top of it stuck out with the curved of the blade. Raising her hand she pointed to the chains, “What if they follow the pattern of the chains and the gems on top.” Moving her hand so that it followed her line of vision. “What if each of them trigger the different elementals... “ A small blush rose to her cheeks. “It’s properly not that just wishful thinking from books of adventure with puzzling situations like this.”
“I think Gabriel is right that it’s too simple aren’t stuff like this meant to get harder as we continue?”

The elementals would wait as their eyes would be focused on the entrance waiting for the challengers to walk into the room. During this time the ground would shake, as if reacting from something outside the ground would shake as small and medium rocks would break off and fall on the ground around them.
As if to prove a point, a large rock would break off from the ceiling before slamming into one of the pillars causing one of the shards to fall from its pedestal and land on the ground. Once that happened a large roar seemed to manifest. Though it wasn’t like the previous ones it was still extremely loud. During the roar if the adventurers had looked at the orb they would see one of the chains seem to snap on one side before being reeled to the opposite side.
As the chain reeled back, it would generate a few sparks and small flames that landed on the floor, though they normally would had vanished they seemed to have grown to the size of a hand before laying on the ground undying. Once the chain itself had vanished anyone who looked at the pentagram on top of the orb would find that a third of it had been replaced with cracks in the same shape. Afterwards everything would die down and a calm would fill the room again waiting for the challengers to walk through.
