Stepping into a Rest Site arms the relic, whatever you then do at the fire, and it lights up as active. At the Energy reset on turn 1 of the next combat you gain 2 Energy and the charge is spent. Two fires in a row still give a single charge of 2. An Elite or Boss fight after the rest counts like any other.
