'''Trelagism''' was a religion on [[Scadrial]] that worshiped the god [[Trell (Trellism)| Trell]]. It was primarily practiced by the Nelazan people before the [[Ascension of the Lord Ruler]] and the establishment of the [[Final Empire]].{{book ref|mb1|9}}

It was created by [[Autonomy]], as a way for her to seed herself into Scadrian culture for when she decides to encroach upon it.{{book ref|mb7|20}}

Before the Final Empire eradicated Trelagism, it was practiced primarily by a people known as the '''Nelazan''', who were heavily influenced by Autonomy, which led to the birth of this faith. The Nelazan people lived in northern Scadrial, likely in close proximity to the planet's [[Wikipedia: Arctic Circle| Arctic Circle]]. Sazed notes that their winters had few hours of daylight, and their summers had few hours of darkness.{{book ref|mb1|9}} These extreme day-night cycles evidently factored into their religious beliefs. Little is known about the Nelazan themselves. Sazed considers them to be a "determined" people, as evidenced by their accomplishment of counting and mapping every planet and major star in the night sky,{{book ref|mb1|9}}{{book ref|mb3|82}} and they apparently placed great value on the study of mathematics and astronomy--a trait which attracted Sazed to the religion personally.{{book ref|mb3|46}} Sazed doesn't consider them to be very advanced, however.{{book ref|mb1|9}} There were, however, some of the Terris who chose to practice Trelagism.{{wob ref|388}}

The original adherents of Trelagism were eliminated by the [[Lord Ruler]], however some [[Terris]] [[Keeper]]s were able to recover their star charts and record their beliefs.{{book ref|mb3|82}} Trelagism was the fifth religion that Sazed offered to [[Vin]] not long after she joined [[Kelsier]]'s crew, hoping she would appreciate their mutual preference for the night.{{book ref|mb1|9}} Sazed later considered the religion for himself, but was discouraged by the lack of clarity that it offered.{{book ref|mb3|46}} After his [[Final Ascension|Ascension]], Sazed used the Trelagist star charts to return Scadrial to its original orbit.{{book ref|mb3|82}}

Trelagism may have diverged from its original beliefs after the [[Catacendre]]. [[Miles Dagouter]], [[Edwarn Ladrian]], and others are self-proclaimed followers of [[Trell_(Trellism)|Trellism]],{{book ref|mb4|11}}{{book ref|mb6|29}} which they believe traces its roots to the religion of Trelagism as described in the [[Words of Founding]].{{book ref|mb4|11}}{{book ref|mb7|20}}

Trelagism and Trellism both worship the same entity, Trell, or [[Autonomy]]. Although the exact teachings appear to differ, with members of the Set having far more knowledge about the nature of Autonomy and the threat she poses to Scadrial if they fail in their mission.{{book ref|mb7|20}}

There is no substantial link between Trelagism and the dualist religion of the [[Purelake]]rs concerning [[Nu Ralik]] and [[Vun Makak]].{{wob ref|734}} It is unclear whether the god Nalt has any connection to the planet [[Nalthis]].{{wob ref|6552}}

Trelagism was created by Autonomy, in an attempt to leave a seed of herself in the planet for when she decided to move in.{{book ref|mb7|20}}
