Personal Lift Device
Falilar and Tomor's prototype: a small box on a wrist brace housing a conjoined ruby in an aluminum cage, plus a trigger for the index finger. Pressing the button conjoins the device's ruby with a paired ruby on a moving weight; pulling the trigger flashes a signal and propels the wearer along whatever direction their pointed arm has chosen — a cousin to the technology that flies the Fourth Bridge.
