The Synod is the ruling council of the Keepers of Terris.[1] They were present both before and during the Final Empire, as well as after the Catacendre.
The Final Empire

However, they did not openly rebel against the Final Empire, instead staying as a secret organization based in Tathingdwen, in the Terris dominance.
