Alalan came to [[Urithiru]] with his wife and his son [[Adin]].

He worked alongside [[Gub]], the other journeyman, and also taught Adin the basics of pottery.{{book ref|sa4|i|11}} When Adin hurt his ankle, Alalan took him to [[Kaladin]] to have it looked at.{{book ref|sa4|23}}
 
During [[Raboniel]]'s occupation of Urithiru, Alalan continued working as normal and deferred to passing [[singers]], advising Adin not to glare at them. He also helped care for the fallen [[Knights Radiant]] and left his home every night in secret for unknown reasons. When things in the atrium began brewing prior to Kaladin's final fight with [[Lezian]], Master Liganor entered the pottery shop to tell Alalan about it and looked to the calm man for approval before closing the shop. Before Liganor left, he instructed Alalan to keep making water pots, as their supply was low; however, Alalan abandoned his half-finished pot on the wheel as soon as the [[lighteyes]] was gone and left for the Radiant infirmary with his son.{{book ref|sa4|i|11}}
 
Alalan took up arms against Lezian's soldiers to protect the Radiants. He was injured, but survived the fight.{{book ref|sa4|111}}

}}
[[Adin]] is Alalan's son. Alalan teaches him pottery and knows about his "secret" desire to become a [[Windrunner]]. He frequently has some piece of fatherly advice for Adin and directs him to act submissive around the [[singers]] and [[Fused]]. Adin picks up from him how to act like nothing is out of the ordinary so he can bide his time and hide his plans for rebellion. Adin believes his father is very brave and wants to be like him.{{book ref|sa4|i|11}}
