Terris
World Scadrial

Terris was a state of Scadrial populated by Feruchemists before the Ascension of the Lord Ruler.

In the Final Empire, the remaining Terris people were selectively bred to reduce the Feruchemical abilities. A portion of the eunuch population was trained and employed as stewards.
