'''Falilar''' is an [[ardent]] who serves as an engineer working under [[Navani Kholin]]'s direction in [[Urithiru]] on [[Roshar]].{{book ref|sa4|19}}
Navani went to visit the engineers who worked in the old [[Urithiru gem archive]] one day, and [[Tomor]] pulled her over to the table where he and Falilar had been working on creating a prototype for the project she had given them. She tested their design, a six-inch box that she could strap to her wrist and use to pull her along a certain vector. Although the design worked-the ruby inside could be engaged and disengaged, then engaged again in a different direction-Falilar was concerned that they still had no answer to the large amount of manpower needed for such devices.{{book ref|sa4|19}}

In answer, Navani led Falilar to the edge of a shaft than ran straight down through Urithiru past its basements. She presented him with the idea of attaching a conjoined ruby and a trigger mechanism to one of the pulleys and weights installed in the shaft, explaining that she had devised windmills with conjoined [[gemstone]]s that would use the power of [[highstorm]]s to ratchet the weights back up to the top. By the end, Falilar excitedly asked for instructions; Navani directed him to work on both the original idea of a lift system and Tomor's idea of the personal device she had just tested.{{book ref|sa4|19}}
