This article's title is uncanonical and a fan created one, because an official term or name has not been made yet.

Shardpool is a non-canon term used to describe liquid Investiture of a Shard. The liquid is often collected into a pool of oddly colored water, these pools can appear on any planet that a Shard has stayed on for an extended length of time.

Known Pools

Well of Ascension

This pool is connected to the Shard of Preservation and was originally located high in the mountains, then later located under the city of Luthadel.

Pits of Hathsin

The Pits of Hathsin are not a true pool, the pool exists under the pits. This Pool Is connected to the power of the Shard of Ruin. The Pits feed off the pool located below them to create atium the solid form of Ruin's Power.{qa ref|691|15|does Ruin have a shardpool?|date=May, 2010}}

Devotion's Shardpool

This pool is found near the city of Elantris and is a location for Elantrians to go to die. This pool does not yet have a unique name associated with it and seems to have gained intelligence on its own. It is capable of dissolving people placed in it.

It is also thought that there is a Shardpool in the Horneater Peaks of Roshar and one somewhere underground near Hallandren in Nalthis, which allows the Tears of Edgli to grow.
