Roll the large ball onto the pressure pad to lower the tall, square column.

Plant a bomb near the ball. Stand just SW of the column, avoiding the flames on top, and grapple the golden ring on the wall.

Detonate the bomb so the ball rolls away and the column begins to rise again. Continue holding the grapple button so the cable wraps up and over the column.

Once the column is fully extended, the flames on top go out. So it's safe to climb on top of it.

Jump from the top of the column across the flame vents to the wide ledge ahead. Take the Clay Serpent Artifact (+ defense, + bomb, + speed) from the alcove. Jump back to the column, drop down on the other side and exit the way you came in.
