'''Lirin''' was a darkeyed [[Alethi]] surgeon and citizen of the second [[nahn]] in the town of [[Hearthstone]] on [[Roshar]].{{book ref|b|twok|c|10}}{{book ref|b|twok|c|44}}
 
== Personality and history ==
[[Kaladin]] and [[Tien]] were his sons and he was married to [[Hesina]].{{book ref|b|twok|c|25}} The other townspeople felt uncomfortable around Lirin and his family because Lirin was looking into people (though they came when they were ill or had injuries) and spent a lot of time with books.{{book ref|b|twok|c|10}} Lirin also taught Kaladin that the life of a person is priceless. He didn't charge for his work but the families of his patients brought donations to thank him.{{book ref|b|twok|c|17}}
 
When citylord Brightlord [[Wistiow]] died, Lirin received a lot of diamond broams that he should use for Kaladin's education.{{book ref|b|twok|c|16}} Later there were rumors that Lirin stole the spheres. Eventually some of the townsmen tried to take the spheres but Lirin persuaded them to leave.{{book ref|b|twok|c|31}} The new citylord, [[Roshone]], worked against Lirin from day one. Though he had no legal possibility to get the spheres, his comments caused the townspeople to stop giving donations and overcharge for their own goods, which made Lirin's family destitute.{{book ref|b|twok|c|37}} In order to deceive [[Roshone]] into thinking his family was worse off than they were, Lirin occasionally spent the spheres. Eventually [[Brightlord]] [[Amaram]] came to town for recruiting new soldiers. Lirin thought that they were safe because they are of the second nahn and his and Kaladin's work as surgeons is vital. But Roshone, who could decide who has to join the army, sent Tien away, as he was not vital to the city. When Kaladin decided to follow Tien in order to protect him, Lirin and Hesina cried, defenselessly, as they lost both sons on this day.{{book ref|b|twok|c|44}}
 
== Surgery and teaching ==
Kaladin was instructed by Lirin in the work of a surgeon and showed a great genius in this work.{{book ref|b|twok|c|10}}{{book ref|b|twok|c|20}} So Lirin thought Kaladin to go to [[Kharbranth]] when he reaches his sixteenth weeping to proceed learning with real scholars and become a better surgeon.{{book ref|b|twok|c|10}} Lirin himself got his education by Vathe in the nearest town to Hearthstone. Lirin's ancestors brought his family to the second nahn which included full citizenship and the right of travel.{{book ref|b|twok|c|10}} So he told Kaladin that he should not waste his life becoming a soldier but use this lucky chance to go to Kharbranth.
 
While instructing Kaladin Lirin told him about the necessitate to always wash hands before doing surgery work.{{book ref|b|twok|c|10}} When Kaladin complained Lirin told him that this wisdom came from the [[Herald]]s who had been sent to teach mankind.
