Description

Alright, I believe I've finished adding the missing entries into the codex. And we have the machete... err, knife.

All that's left is to make our own tablet and verify my other suspicion about these tablets:

I believe that they're not just simple texts, but a sort of magical device.

Save yoursellf a lot of trouble by just moving away from Nicholo Swiftfuse.
To the south-east are a bunch of rocks.
Go sit there, grab an apple and enjoy the view :-)

most f-d up quest ever. I died to about 8 ghosts on my &*!@ty spriest. Don't even bother to fight, they don't even attack the npc.
And died again when I came back to turn in the quest, since they're all just standing around still.

Unless you're a moderately geared 110, don't even try to fight your way through this protection quest. Way more mobs appear than one levelling character can handle....just back away and let them do their thing until the quest completes. They don't attack Nicholo and they will eventually despawn.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

Right Tool for the JobLevel 10-45
From what little I have been able to decipher, I know that the tablets are created using a special carving tool. If we had one of those tools, along with a complete codex, we could easily create our own tablet. That would also serve to prove that my deciphering of their language has been successful.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

Ancient Vrykul MasteredLevel 10-45
Here are those tablets back, along with their deciphered writing. You can take this codex back to Pallin, too. I'll start getting my things ready for when he calls me back to Dalaran. <Nicholo sighs.> Learn from my example, <name>.
