Gotta really like the riddles that Funcom throws into the missions. But essentially you might have to click about the braziers in a precise buy (sequence) based on their meanings. To save lots of time here's the right sequence:
Birth
Infancy
Adulthood
Old Age

Powering Infancy are Immortality and Previous Age. Final is Demise. After you simply click on every single brazier within the right order the mission will update saying this:
Inspect Where by the Beams are Pointing
The moment you arrive at the situation that the blue gentle beams off the braziers are pointing to you'll get another update inquiring you to "Collect the Metallic Scarab". Jump up onto the platform and make your way down the trail till you find the scarab. Grab it and you'll move on to the subsequent tier with the Large Terrible Photograph.
