The Empyrean word for the star that Auberean orbits.[1] It is possibly a Yalaini word with origins in Falatacot.[1][2][3] However, the only sources supporting the possibility of Falatacot origin are from dialog or text where the surrounding content is in Roulean, so it is possible that Au is not Falatacot, but rather the word we translate a different Falatacot word into. So the possibility remains that the word Au is Yalaini, and since there is no proper Roulean word for the sun here, we adopted their word.
The Yalaini word for "I" [4]
The Tonk word for "spirit"[5]
