1414 The Pillar Rotation Mechanism

1515

1616 The central area has a large object in the middle surrounded by lava pools and four outer pillars. The goal is to make all four pillars glow blue by stabbing the central object and rotating it to adjust their heights.

1717

1818 When you stab the central object, your sword enters one of the cardinal points, and you can rotate it left or right. This raises or lowers the surrounding pillars. Each pillar needs to reach a specific position (roughly two-thirds of the way down) until a blue glow appears. The puzzle is solved when all four pillars glow blue simultaneously.

2222 There are consistent reports that the following three-turn sequence solves the puzzle reliably. This is not random, and the same steps work across different save files.

2323

2424 First turn (right side): Face the right side of the central object and stab in. Rotate until the tallest pillar behind you lowers and everything turns blue.Second turn (opposite side): Run around to the side directly opposite your first turn. Stab in and push the remaining pillars down until the tallest one glows blue. You should see two pillars that are now lowered into the ground.Third turn (opposite again): Go to the side opposite the second turn. Stab in and rotate to bring the two lowered pillars back up. This final turn activates the remaining pillars.

4747 Lava is instant death. Even a tiny patch in the middle of the arena will kill you instantly. Stay on solid ground until the lava has fully drained.If you get the pillar rotation wrong, it can take 10+ minutes of trial and error to fix. Follow the exact three-turn sequence above.Use the Axiom grapple to activate the button from a safe distance rather than walking through the freshly drained lava area.After unlocking Flame, consider returning to Hernand to pick up the Volcanic Eruption Abyss Gear from the waterfall cave near the Tea of Rivers. This pairs exceptionally well with the new fire abilities.
