The business with Alexander only seemed to involve Travanchet giving Mide a horn, and that was able to "draw vast quantities of aether from the bearer's surroundings" apparently on its own, so where (and what) is the tablet, and what is the tablet's purpose?

Was the Enigma Codex functionally a tablet?

Are the tablets related to the explanation of how electrope works, with arcane engravings to direct aether to do a particular thing?

Well there is this:



I feel like it may not be coincidence that the Enigma Codex looks like it's made of electrope, or rather, that electrope looks like material that makes up the Enigma Codex.
