There's a WoB, now actually cited here, linking the red haze to a Shard interfering on Scadrial, so restoring with slightly softer language
(Removed section claiming that Harmony says the red mist in Bands of Mourning is Trell. He does not say that. When asked what it is, he says he does not know and does no mention Trell.) |

Trell is related to one of the sixteen [[Shards]] of [[Adonalsium]].{{wob ref|8631}}{{wob ref|11251}} The identity of that Shard is unknown, though some are more likely candidates than others.{{wob ref|6261}} It is possible that Trell is not itself a full Shard, but rather an avatar, or some other lesser being, which is merely related to a distinct Shard.{{wob ref|12232}} Harmony appears to use a vast, red haze around Scadrial to represent Trell when meeting with [[Waxillium Ladrian]], and Wax described a sensation of "dread and destruction" choking him upon observing it.{{book ref|mb6|28}}{{wob ref|8345}}{{wob ref|8554}} The appearance of red suggests that the entity is co-opting or corrupting the [[Investiture]] of another Shard.{{wob ref|8340}}{{wob ref|12126}}
Between the activities of Trellists, including [[Miles Dagouter]] and the [[Set]], and Paalm's use of Trell's metal, it seems likely that the actions and philosophies of these parties conform to Trell's own plans. Broadly speaking, this seems to involve issues of social inequality paired with disapproval of Harmony's influences.{{book ref|mb4|11}}{{book ref|mb5|17}}{{book ref|mb5|20}}
