Silver Tablet

The Silver Tablet is an important item in Ultima VI. Engraved on the tablet are the detailed instructions how to translate the Gargish Alphabet into English -- the only such instructions ever known to exist at that point in history.

Zoltan was ordered by Captain Johne to deliver it to Mariah, but the pirates under Captain Hawkins attacked them and the tablet broke in two, with the pirates and Zoltan both keeping half. The Avatar needed the tablet to translate the Book of Prophecies, but only half had found its way to the Lycaeum, and Mariah needed both halves. The Avatar had to find the complete Treasure Map of Hawkins, to find the hidden treasure and with it the other half of the tablet.

With it, the Book could be translated by Mariah, revealing the prophecy of the False Prophet.
