pillars-of-eternity
In the first cave area, there is a room full of pillars. Interacting with these pillars does not seem to work if you are not a fire godlike. I went and hired a fire godlike at the next inn and doubled back, but the dialog is still unavailable as "the requirement is not met".
How do I deal with these pillars?
Click on the golden cross in your character portrait, exactly the cross, not the portrait itself.
Yes!
Go around to the West of the tower (left from the drawbridge). There are vines hanging down the castle walls. If you click on them, you'll be able to leap across the moat, grab the vines, and scale the castle walls.

You'll need to carry a Torch in your inventory. (No requirement to equip it.)
The Fire Godlike option only works if the player character is a Fire Godlike; it won't work with a companion NPC.
All that said, there's no point in going back to light them. All it does is disable a pathway through the trap file grid in the adjoining room - and if you're doubling back, you've clearly either gotten through it with the Mechanics skill or just gone around it entirely.
