 Still needs some detail work, but I did tweak the lighting a bit.
Added a soft light in front of each pillar and added some media.
re-rendered with radiosity and AA . I tried to use an athmospheric
media, but it whited out the scene, I don't know what it is, I must be
doing something wrong, or missing a step. I'll play around with it some
more, I still need to add torches and holders to go with the flames.

Are you using fade_power and fade_distance? If not, they can help greatly in
scenes lit like this because real lighting of this sort doesn't go a long way.

Yes, I did, fade_distance 5, fade_power 0.25, the light_source intensity is only
0.1875, but it does look better anyway.

Umm... fade power 0.25? I'm not sure what that does, but fade power is normally >=1.
2 is the physically accurate number.

	Were I commenting on the "jade" texture, the sections are about what
one might find in a 4x1 inch slab of jade. The rest is similarly course.
