In the prologue of Rhythm of War Navani found Aesudan talking to Rushur Kris a master artifabrian who has brought a box which has a flower painted on it. As we know flower is the symbol of Ghostblood. Can someone confirm is this true?

I don't think we know for sure, though the theory has merit. Especially since he was there at Gavilar's behest.

However, we don't know if he "brought" the box or received it (Navani just assumes it might be a new Fabrial) - all we know for sure is that he was holding it in the gardens:

Spoiler

Storms bright and brash … that was Rushur Kris, the artist and master artifabrian. When had he arrived? Who had invited him? He was holding a small box with a flower painted on it. Could that be … one of his new fabrials?

Navani felt drawn toward the group, all other thoughts fleeing her mind. How had he made the heating fabrial, making the temperature vary? She’d seen drawings, but to talk to the master artist himself …

Aesudan saw Navani and smiled brightly. The joy seemed genuine, which was unusual—at least when directed at Navani. She tried not to take Aesudan’s general sourness toward her as a personal affront; it was the prerogative of every woman to feel threatened by her mother-in-law. Particularly when the girl was so obviously lacking in talents.

Navani smiled at her in turn, trying to enter the conversation and get a better look at that box. Aesudan, however, took Navani by the arm. “Mother! I had completely forgotten about our appointment. I’m so fickle sometimes. Terribly sorry, Ardent Kris, but I must make a hasty exit.”

Aesudan tugged Navani—forcefully—back through the gardens toward the kitchens. “Thank Kelek you showed up, Mother. That man is the most dreadful bore.”

“Bore?” Navani said, twisting to gaze over her shoulder. “He was talking about…”

“Gemstones. And other gemstones. And spren and boxes of spren, and storms! You’d think he would understand. I have important people to meet. The wives of highprinces, the best generals in the land, all come to gawk at the wild parshmen. Then I get stuck in the gardens talking to ardents? Your son abandoned me there, I’ll have you know. When I find that man…”

Navani extricated herself from Aesudan’s grip. “Someone should entertain those ardents. Why are they here?”

“Don’t ask me,” Aesudan said. “Gavilar wanted them for something, but he made Elhokar entertain them. Poor manners, that is. Honestly!”

Worth noting, a lot of the fabrial mechanics lecture from Navani involved the use of metals we would recognize for their use in Scadrian Metallic arts.  It would make sense for the renowned artifabrian who “discovered” these principles to be secretly Scadrian.  Plus, someone scared off the Terriswoman who was working for Odium.

Who discovered the use of particular metals in fabrial mechanics?  Or who scared off Ulim’s contact?

Who scared off Ulim's contact

Un Feruquimista con un vinculo aviar, el mayordomo en jefe que llora al mencionarle a navani que gavilar murio. Tambien es el mismo que Mrayse asesina en Ritmos de Guerra y el dueño del ave que posteriormente se queda LIft.  (no recuerdo su nombre) 

 

Nota : Soy Nuevo en el foro y solo hablo español, espero que con ayuda del traductor de golee pueda ayudarte a leer.
