Terris was a state of Scadrial populated by Feruchemists before the Ascension of the Lord Ruler.
History
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]
Final Empire
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. Stewards held an unusual place in the final empire, and were given the title 'Vaht'.[4]
After the Collapse
After the fall of the Lord Ruler, the Synod revealed themselves and started leading their people back into the ways before the Final Empire.[citation needed]
Genocide
After Ruin was released, he took control of the Steel Inquisitors and the Koloss. He sent some Inquisitors to the newly free Terris and slaughtered the Feruchemists.[citation needed] The remaining people fled the mountains and headed towards the central dominance, away from the deadly mists.
