The Horneater Peaks are a mountain range in Jah Keved on Roshar. The Unkalaki civilization lives around large lakes on the peaks called Oceans. Each peak has one Ocean. They provide warmth so that the peaks have habitable temperature's while the area surrounding the peaks are frozen wastelands.
These lakes are described by Sigzil as ordinary hot spring of sorts:
“ The Top of each mountain forms a kind of crater, [...] which is filled with a large lake of warm water. The heat is enough to create a pocket of livable land, despite the altitude. Walk too far from one of the Horneater towns, though, and you'll end up in freezing temperatures and ice fields left by the highstorms. ”
Rock on the other hand ascribes them mystical attributes. He says under the normal water is Water of life. He says the Oceans are connected to the Gods and Horneaters who swim in the Oceans can sometimes see the Place of the Gods (most likely the Shadesmar). He says swimming in the Oceans is lethal to outsiders, while Sigzil claims that the Horneaters just kill every outsider who attempts to do it.
Another name that Sigzil uses for the lakes is emerald pools.
Sanderson has confirmed that the Elantrian pool and the Horneater lakes are the same thing.[2]
