Hint
The book on Farengar's desk titled "The Practice of Teleportation" is translated correctly except for the word in Falmer script. This means you are looking for some sort of ancient dwarven power source (this is mentioned in the book). If you are still stuck then go to the ruins that the tome and orb came from. The book details which ruin you need to go to. In those ruins somewhere in the living quarters on a bench in a forgotten courtyard you will find an ancient letter to a Falmer woman which will give you your next hint.

Although most Falmer by this time were blind, misshapen, and used for brute labor, a very small select few were allowed to abstain from eating the Blackreach mushroom, and lived as personal servants to esteemed Dwarves.
