Look
Pitch sky without stars. A small white sun on the horizon. Straight clouds like a tunnel. Ground of cold black glass. Oceans of translucent dark beads the size of a fingernail. Living people appear as tiny flames. walk as solid, wrong-shaped things.
Where
Not on the map of Roshar. Alongside it — under it — through it. Land there corresponds to water here, and water to land.
