Make sure you actually cleared all the moss, that would be very helpful because it's a little annoying you don't get an indicator on what can and can't be pressed, there is a book that tells of history, and inside the loghouse there are symbols of animals, you have to press them in a specific sequence, I don't remember what but that's how you solve it
