TheWoWDB<Through the glare, it looks like Huo is smiling. He seems to have warmed up to you.>Glare? Warming up to you? Har har, Blizzard, you're so punny.
In more important information, the brazier Huo is floating above is NOT an actual brazier-- that is, it does not do any burn damage from standing near/on it. So don't be afraid to get close and use your quest item!

Yet another Noob quest.
There was a firewall you could not pass at the top of the stairs behind Master Li Fei. That wall is now gone and you can pass. (Remember from "Only the Worthy Shall Pass").You now have a pack in your bags. Go to the ghostly looking Huo, the Ancient Spirit of Fire and use the pack in your bag to light the fire pit below him. After a few seconds of audio effects and you waving your hands - he will appear and accept your completed quest and assign you a new one.
May the Panda be with you!

Description
You are worthy of passing, {class}. Huo, the spirit of fire rests in the chamber beyond. Let him feast upon the kindling you've gathered, and use the wind to fan his flames. Doing so should endear you to him. Once he is ignited, if he is willing, lead him to the Temple of Five Dawns, the building standing high in the center of the island.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Possibly this has been changed in the intervening years as it's not necessary now to go near the fire or do anything in particular. Just stand on the pool wall near the brazier and click on the quest item. That's it, all done in seconds.
