On meeting Link again in Kakariko, Wortsworth explains what the tablet said, a contemporary history of the days of [[Rauru (Tears of the Kingdom)|King Rauru]]'s reign, and that it is apparently the first in a set of thirteen. He asks Link to photograph the others so he can translate them, and pays him 100 rupees for each tablet he brings him a usable picture of, as well as explaining what they say. He also pins the pictures up on his wall, along with the translations and explanations.

All of these tablets start on star-shaped sky islands, at the coordinates there should be a star-shaped island above you. When stepping on the center to take a picture of the tablet several will detach and begin to fall to the ground. At least one will fall into a chasm directly below, others will just crash to the ground. If you're quick enough you can take the picture before the platform starts falling too fast. If you miss any of these, the tablet can be found below the star-shaped sky island it started in, if in a chasm you may have to light the area to take the picture.
Many of the star sky islands can be reached by launching into the air using a Skyview Tower and gliding or paragliding to the sky island. Once you visit the island and take a picture of the writing on each tablet, return to [[Wortsworth]] in [[Kakariko Village]]. You can return with one picture at a time or multiple at once. He will pay a silver rupee for each one and read you the script then provide an interpretation. Afterward, he will post both versions on the walls of his lab for you to re-read as desired.


STONE TABLET #1
STONE TABLET #1
This stone tablet is at the coordinates (-4034, 3196, 0447), located on the north-western corner of the map, west of the Hebra Mountains in the Hebra region. I highly recommend using the Rospro Pass Skyview Tower here.
* Start from: [[Lookout Landing Skyview Tower]]
* Falls on [[Lookout Landing]] after a dungeon is completed
* Co-ordinates & map link: {{TotKcoord|-0268|0066|0018|Surface|m=SA-MessagesfromanAncientEra}}


STONE TABLET #2
STONE TABLET #2
This stone tablet is at the coordinates (-1369, 3575, 0904), located northwest on the Hyrule map, north of the Tabantha Tundra, and east on the Hebra region.
* Start from: [[Ulri Mountain Skyview Tower]] or [[Natak Shrine]]
 
* Found south of Akkala Highlands and northwest of the Hudson Construction Site and Tarrey Town. From the sky platform with the Flux Construct near Natak Shrine there are fans and other parts that can be used to fly high enough to reach this tablet.
In order to get to its correspondent sky island, the Pikida Stonegrove Skyview Tower is a perfect shortcut.

STONE TABLET #3
STONE TABLET #3
This stone tablet is at the coordinates (-0041, 2993, 1491), located up north on the Hyrule map, in between the Thyphlo Ruins and Drenan Highlands, northwest of the Great Hyrule Forest.
* Start from: [[Eldin Canyon Skyview Tower]]
 
* Located southeast of Eldin Canyon and northwest of the Zora's Domain.
I recommend heading over to the Thyphlo Ruins Skyview Tower. From there, you’re going to want to head southwest (using the map as reference) toward the star-shaped sky island.
