Elantrian Pool
also known as the pool, the lake
A shallow, sapphire-blue pool set in the mountainside above Kae, reached by a long stair from the hidden shrine beneath Elantris. An Elantrian lowered into its water sighs once and dissolves away to nothing — a release from a body that cannot otherwise die. The pull on a living Elantrian standing at its edge is its own danger.

The pool cannot take an Elantrian who does not consent — its surrender has always been the Elantrian's own choice. None of the Hoed who walked into it had ever forced its hand.EL:EL:Ch 61
