The sun does rise in the east, yeah.
So, I can't open up this game in the editor anymore (no longer have RPG Maker VX), and there used to be a guide up on rpgmaker.net, but that site's been down for some time. If you can give the text to the puzzle, I can reason it out, but that's about the best I can do.
The room has 6 pedestals with buttons I can step on: 1 northwest, 1 northeast, 1 east, 1 southeast, 1 southwest, 1 west. here's the text:
On the first day of his pilgrimage to the holy land, St. Ignus rose with the morning sun. The second day, he set out to the west, but, finding the mountains too difficult to cross, he waited a day and decided to travel northeast to circumvent them. The fourth day, he traveled a great distance southwest through the desert. The fifth day, St. Ignus traveled north, and, not finding the holy land, he got lost in the desert on his way home, and on the sixth day he had traveled far to the southeast. Lost and crestfallen, he prayed for guidance, and he heard God’s voice echoing in his heart, “Child your faith in me has waivered. When faced with adversity, you changed your path. This is why you have become lost.” St. Ignus understood, and he found God on the seventh day, going to sleep with the sun.
