cyphers that i know and have tried applying
The Vigenere Cipher
Edgar Allen Poe
PGP
The Alberti Cipher
The Rail Fence Cipher
The Gronsfeld Cipher
The Enigma Cipher
RSA Public Key Encryption
Simple Substitution Ciphers
The Caesar Cipher

those are the only ones i know how to work out byhand. the reason i say by hand as the quest shouldnt require a second computer in order to play the game and therefor must be solve able by hand

The only thing i can gather is that the numbers from the broken tablet are different to different languages of the game, english is 8-6, and with the scroll from astorus being doubly important, i searched the eight/sixth numeber of each paragraph and came up with some nice lines....... (uk version) every 6th work from first paragraph ... location..of...harpies...with.....hidden....however...have...not...help That was using a mix of eight and 6th word. Other combos bring out equally interesting messages.

My head hurts now, gonna afk by some cool water and dip my feet in.

Frequency analysis is a statistical method. In every language, some letters are used on the average more than others, and the percentages of letters in different languages tends to be constant. For example, the "frequencies" of the different letters of the alphabet in English are roughly as follows, arranged from "most frequent" to "least frequent" with their average percentage of use:

e: 12.7
t: 9.1
a: 8.2
o: 7.5
i: 7.0
n: 6.9
s: 6.3
h: 6.1
r: 6.0
d: 4.2
l: 4.0
c: 2.8
u: 2.8
m: 2.4
w: 2.4
f: 2.2
g: 2.0
y: 2.0
p: 1.9
b: 1.5
v: 1.0
k: 0.8
j: 0.2
x: 0.2
q: 0.1
z: 0.1
might help if we look at the cyrpt text the damage scroll should be a list on keys

Does it say step 11 in your journal as you should have a cryptic scroll which is the last part of the quest.

Thats not what I asked. Name of the island would have been helpful, but I`ve found that out without your help.
