History
The Terris people were known for their Feruchemical prowess.
When Alendi came to Terris to stop the Deepness from consuming the world, they took him up into the mountainous regions to seek the Well of Ascension.[1] When they arrived, Rashek betrayed and killed Alendi and took the power of the Well for himself.[2] After realising that his Ascension had ruined the world, he set himself up as the protector of humanity, beginning the time of the Final Empire.[3]
In the Final Empire, the remaining Terris people were selectively bred to reduce the Feruchemical abilities. They were trained and employed as stewards, and named Vaht.[4]
“"Probably," Cosahn said. "But I cannot perform miracles, Master Vaht." Sazed nodded. "Vaht" was, apparently, the proper title for a Terrisman steward. Not quite skaa, but definitely not noblemen, the Terrismen held a very strange place in imperial society. "”
