2-nd collum is additional ordering info. For example you can do both Inscription of the Body and Scribal Knowledge after The Price of Power
The drop rate on this is terrible. Sad to see that they've reverted to Vanilla WoW quest design on this one.

Description
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. Retrieve one of those tools for me, {name}.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Runes Within the Ruins
Unfortunately, Pallin's codex isn't complete. There are many symbols here that simply cannot be deciphered with what we've learned. Looks like we'll need to go and collect more tablets down in the area that the vrykul call Haustvald.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Not So Complex?
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.
