Tomb of Semerkhet - Room with Pools and Flame Niches

After dispatching the 2 jackals, as described in the main walkthrough, go around to the far side of the room.

Carefully approach the alcove with the 3 flame niches. The left and right flames oscillate on and off. The center one burns steadily. You'll need to use the niches to lower the pink marble block off to the right.

Start by standing just outside the alcove facing the right niche. Any closer and Lara will catch fire.

When the flame dies down, run forward and reach into the niche to operate a mechanism that turns off the middle flame permanently.

Then immediately hop back twice to avoid being toasted.

Reach into the middle niche to operate another mechanism which lowers the marble block, opening up a passageway.

Last, wait for the flame in the left niche to go out.

Then reach in to grab a small medipack.

Again, hop back twice to avoid the flames.

Then go through the door you just opened.
