You do get more of a reward from this than what is listed above.

Within 24 hours of turning in the texts, you'll get a letter from Ortell in the mail. Along with a letter, you'll get a package of documents that were supposedly translated from those texts.

Those will vary from decrypted texts that contain news about the Twilight Cultists, buff scrolls, and certain rare plans.

In fact, this is the only way to acquire "Darkrune" armor plans for blacksmiths, "Runed Stygian" armor patterns for tailors, and scrolls to create the "Crest of Beckonings" aside from camping out the AH for them.

This is also a repeatable quest, meaning you can keep turning in stacks of 10 encrypted twilight texts to Ortell instead of to the NPC in Cenarion Hold. However, while you will get items for the turn ins, you will not get any rep.

Description

Now that I have the Twilight Lexicon in my possession, there is a small favor I'd like to ask of you. My former organization has a secret encoded bulletin they circulate on a monthly basis. If they make any progress searching for me or if they call off the search, word will be published on the True Believer. Although this information is obviously valuable to me, the publication contains other useful information that I can share. Bring me any encoded texts you find on Twilight's Hammer members.

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.

  • The Twilight LexiconSilithus · Level 15-30

    The Twilight's Hammer are not kind to those that leave their ranks. They hunt me to this day like I'm some sort of beast! Needless to say, an enemy of theirs is a friend of mine! To decipher this Tablet I'll need the book used by their scribes to encode secret messages: the Twilight Lexicon.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • A Terrible PurposeSilithus · Level 15-30

    Ok, here we are... a pretty valuable chunk of information, I must say! I've seen the Cenarion Circle forces arrive at Silithus. They plan to drive the Twilight's Hammer out, don't they? This will help. Take this parchment to their leader, Commander Mar'alith.
