Horneater Oceans
Region The Horneater Peaks
World Roshar

The Horneater Oceans are a series of lakes, or thermal hot springs, on the Horneater Peaks. Sigzil also calls them "The Emerald Pools."

Rock says that swimming in the oceans is death to any non-Unkalaki and not because the they execute violators. He says that the top of the oceans are water, but that "Beneath, is not. Is something else. Water of life. The place of the gods." He clams they can visit and commune with the gods, and that he has seen Lunu’anaki, the god of travel.

Rock insists that they were given to his people from the Gods of the waters for bringing the three gods together to help the Unkalaki.[1]

Lunu’anaki

Rock claims to have met Lunu’anaki at the Horneater oceans. He describes him as Alethi, with white hair, and an angular face. Further he states that lunu'anaki cannot hurt humans. This is a description very similar to Hoid.[1]

Speculation

The presence of Hoid, described as the god of travel, and the mysterious substance under the water, make it possible the Horneater oceans are a Shardpool or Perpendicularity.[2]
