''Wilg'' is a small ship, approximately six feet wide and twice as long, with a flat bottom. It fits seamlessly into the hull of the ''Brunstell'' like a drawer in a dresser, and can be accessed through a trapdoor inside the larger ship. It can be deployed by pulling a lever that mechanically pushes it on a "shelf" out of the side of the ''Brunstell'''s hull.{{book ref|mb6|20}}{{book ref|mb6|21}} It has a seating compartment, similar to an automobile, with a glass windshield and sides open to the air. Passengers sit in a few chairs that are bolted to the floor.{{book ref|mb6|20}} Larger airships can hold skimmers from other vessels,{{book ref|mb6|30}} although it is unclear if they fit neatly into different hulls.

Skimmers move slower than a train, but knowledge of local wind conditions can help pilots take efficient routes. A ship like ''Wilg'' typically carries enough ettmetal to fly for a few days; a Coinshot could theoretically Push the ship's fans to power them, but this would require a constant supply of steel.{{book ref|mb6|22}} The ship is only intended to hold six or fewer passengers, plus their supplies.{{book ref|mb6|21}} Spare medallions are typically kept on board for emergencies, including those with the powers of [[duralumin]], iron, and [[brass]].{{book ref|mb6|20}}{{book ref|mb6|28}}

|I don't even speak my own [language] that well. But I’m trying. Seems like a good skill for a skimmer pilot to have, since it’s often my job to pilot Wilg and take people between ships or towers.

During the initial journey on ''Wilg'', Wax and [[Marasi]] asked Allik about the ship's technology; they learned about ettmetal and unsealed metalminds, both previously unknown outside of Southern Scadrial.{{book ref|mb6|21}}{{book ref|mb6|22}} Telsin surreptitiously watched Allik operate the ship to make sure she knew how it worked.{{book ref|mb6|29}} Wax realized that [[Edwarn]] would be heading for the temple, and Allik piloted ''Wilg'' into the mountains, eventually landing near the temple.{{book ref|mb6|21}}{{book ref|mb6|23}} The group hoped to quickly find the [[Bands of Mourning]] and then escape on ''Wilg'',{{book ref|mb6|24}} but Edwarn and the Set found the ship and moved it closer to the temple.{{book ref|mb6|25}}{{book ref|mb6|29}} Edwarn's team was able to launch the large [[Hunter]] airship that had been abandoned at the temple site years before; Telsin scrambled to find ''Wilg'' but she was shot by Wayne.{{book ref|mb6|29}} Wax thought Jordis would want to take ''Wilg'' back to the ''Brunstell'', but when he tried to find it, he discovered that Telsin had managed to survive the shooting and flee on the skimmer.{{book ref|mb6|30}}
