Fjorgin seems to note that he cannot just grasp someone from the other side of the barrier to bring them in, he literally has to walk hand-in-hand with them into the chapel.
As Fjorgin steps out and takes the hands of Liavyre and Thea, he steps through the barrier with them at the same time. They feel the light resistance of the barrier, but can pass through. As they do, they notice something, an ethereal golden band seems to glimmer around their midsections, then a link of the same energy grasps onto Fjorgin before fading from view.
For Fjorgin:
You hear a voice in your head. It doesn't have discernible tone or inflections, but it states: "These two you are bound to. Their lack of faith puts their sins on your shoulders."
"Please be respectful of this sacred place. Ragmin, have you seen what we are looking for?"

After the golden band appears then fades away, Liavyre says, "I have no intention of desecrating anything here, but what just happened? We're not in danger are we? It seems like Thea and I are not exactly welcome."

Fjorgin looks conflicted, in awe at the sacredness of this place while also being worried about something.

(As the Luminary said, Pip's job was to lead the group to the chapel and back. He doesn't know what you're looking for)
As Fjorgin leads the pair of Thea and Liavyre in, I will assume that Ragmin will do the same for Canary and Flitch.
Ragmin looks around and sees plenty of icons to the five gods. Each of them would be classed as a valued relic, something from before the time of The Lower. There are chalices by a font, incense boxes and prayer wheels, statues of what must be chosen of the five, as well as a large chest at the side of the room.
After some more investigation, Ragmin sees that there is more to this chapel than the main room of worship. At the back of the room is a mural to the five, but something seems a bit off about it, as if some of it would be able to move like a doorway.
Liavyre hears Fjorgin's words and gives a nod in understanding as she is too concerned with even uttering a word in this place. She proceeds with Fjorgin cautiously, saying nothing and taking care not to touch anything as if she is an unwelcome guest in a stranger's home.
Checking over the mural, there appears to be five "buttons" in the wall, each corresponding to the symbol of each of the respective five gods. Perhaps pressing them in a particular order will make the mural open (or brute strength, your choice).
Thea has a keen eye for these things. While not one who is devoted to one of the five (i.e. a cleric or a paladin) she does note there are some inconsistencies in the room. Checking over some of the "relics", some of them feel out of place. When checking over a couple of them, she notes that those out of place items seem to be the following:
A bronze symbol of Yondalla
A gold chalice with a mark of Pelor
An iron ring bearing Garl Glittergold's icon
A silver offering box with a mark of Corellon
A tinderbox on an altar with Moradain's mark on it
Perhaps they have something to do with the five buttons on the mural.
Fjorgin delicately picks up the objects that Thea noticed and tries to align them with the buttons.

Fjorgin takes the relics that Thea points out and examines them. Each of them seems to have a different base valuable metal. They don't seem to attach to the mural in any way, but perhaps are the key to which buttons to press in which order.
Fjorgin presses the buttons in this order: Pelor, Corellon, Yondalla, Garl Glittergold, Moradin.

There is a satisfying *click* noise to each of the pressing of the buttons. As the final button is pressed, there is a low rumbling as part of the mural begins to slide into the ground, leaving behind a dark hallway that descends downwards with ancient, yet sturdy, stone stairs.
Liavyre stays close, taking care to still not touch anything and has a look on her face that she might be turned into a toad when Fjorgin presses the button.
She clinches her eyes shut and hears the click, then opens them to see the mural open.
With a sigh of relief she says, "Well done Fjorgin. Down we go then?"
(If we all go down the stairs)
I assume we are proceeding down the stairs momentarily, so she stays "connected" to Fjorgin, but keeps an eye out as they proceed.

"That looked interesting", Ragmin says after observing the golden bands around there midsection that appeared for a moment.

Thea is quite overwhelmed by the sight.

Ragmin moves to the back, where the mural is. starts looking for a hidden lever or button to form a door.
