I'm having a difficult time following your path. The eye points to the (#2) leaf, but then what? The leaf points down & right. Wouldn't we go to the next leaf?
If the idea is to follow the vine that the leaf points to, then that's hopeless. The vine disappears almost immediately and doesn't give any indication of direction.
The leaf with the #3 on it points back up into the flames. But there is no number 4? And yet there is a number 5?
hm... yes I've probably missed some numbers
here you go, the full path:

2. follow vine branches (cyan color)
section 1, cyan path, do something with:
3. blue flame
section 2, cyan path, do something with:
4. white square (probably position)
5. white queen/bishop
6. blue knight
7. rays (?)
8. white square (probably position)
9. go to section 3
section 3, yellow path, do something with:
(and so one..., unfortunately we are still in section 1)
(leafs marked green are probably associated with leaf 12)
