For now, here's an option:
Ask the undead to open a passage, then walk for an hour to the heart. There, offer the flower to the dead god.
Or:
Offer the flower to the skeletons so they open the passage, then walk for an hour to the heart. There, ask the dead god for something.

Yeah, I think I made it a bit too complicated. :)

Usually, they at least give you some kind of religious book with hints in such situations. Or a poem. And there are fewer variables, as a rule.

IMPORTANT

...she found a book that mentioned the temple of the Dead God. In the book, the structure was called the Tomb of the Heart, but not a temple. Alexis learned that in the tomb, they would face three "trials" before they could reach the place with the statue of the Dead God. The first trial was somehow related to levers and the correct sequence, the second to a black mirror and faith, and the third to the guardian of the bridge and questions.

Based on what immediately comes to mind:

"path to the heart" = 5, 3, 8

I wanted to offer you some flowers, but a crown would suit a princess like you much better

You need to use all the levers, Medj.

Know what needs to be done? That's right! Just defeat all the skeletons before they activate.

Summon a golem that will break through the passage.

:smile15:
I know. I was actually suggesting we solve this problem using brainstorming.
If I could immediately name the entire sequence, I would. I just threw out an idea; maybe others will come up with where to connect it.

I'll think about giving Alexis a more precise decipherment of the symbols.

Isn't it intentional that there are five symbols on each wall? Maybe it's like a phrase made up of two sentences that are related in meaning?

Or are there specifically five symbols on each wall? Maybe it's like a phrase made up of two sentences with related meanings?

That's a good idea.
In general, to create a meaningful sentence (or two), we need certain parts of speech.
For example, for two sentences:
2 verbs
1 preposition
4-5 nouns
2-3 adjectives

I think 5, 6, and 8 are definitely nouns, 3 is {obviously} a preposition, 1 and 7 could be verbs, and 4 and 9 are adjectives, like "dead."

By the way, it's not a heart, but a "heart crypt."
I would say that the hourglass represents the "crypt," because the sand is falling, but it doesn't quite fit with the word "hour."

Does anyone know what role flowers play in ancient Halehidian culture?

Yes, I was thinking about that too.
1 - most likely a verb
2 - a noun
3 - a preposition (probably "to")
4 - an adjective
5 - a noun
6 - a noun
7 - ?
8 - a noun
9 - an adjective
10 - ?

I was thinking about the option "dead flower," and, by the way, the Halehids are world-famous for growing medilia.

But the problem is probably that the translation is inaccurate, and the connection may exist purely between the images, meaning that it is simply impossible to translate it properly; additional parts of speech, etc., would be needed. In this case, there is almost no translation of the meaning.

If you start with one set of five, and then switch to another, here's an idea. The first set of five:
3, 2, 4, 1, 5
The second set of five:
7, 10, 8, 9, 6
