The Purelake is a large, shallow lake that is hundreds of miles wide.{{book ref|sa1|i|1}} It is separated from the [[Reshi Sea]] by the nation of [[Marabethia]]. The Purelake borders the nations of [[Tu Bayla]] to the east, [[Yulay]] to the south, and [[Babatharnam]] to the west.{{map ref|Roshar}} In [[Shadesmar]], the Purelake is a mountain range.{{map ref|Shadesmar}} The depth of the lake in the [[Physical Realm]] is not related to how it appears in the [[Cognitive Realm|Cognitive]].{{wob ref|2889}}
 
The waters of the Purelake are warm and crystal-clear, and the surface typically calm and smooth despite the tides. The lake has an average depth of about midcalf, though at some spots it reaches depths of around six feet.{{book ref|sa1|i|1}} These deepest spots likely coincide with the sinkholes in the lake.{{book ref|sa3|__98}} The lake bottom has small ridges and sharp ledges of rock, which can make walking through the Purelake precarious. Purelakers are skilled at navigating such terrain, knowing to test their footing before putting their weight down.{{book ref|sa1|i|1}}
 
It is unknown what type of, if any, mineral deposits can be found around the lake.{{wob ref|8514}}
