One can speculate that their religious observances, if they had any, were at their height during the winter months, and summer months may have contained many petitions to Trell or attempts to ward off Nalt's jealousy. (See "Geography", below.) === Followers === Before the Final Empire eradicated Trelagism, it was practiced primarily by a people known as the Nelazan. Little is known about the Nelazan, themselves, but they were described by [[Sazed]] as being a "determined people", and that they mapped out the entire night sky. (Likely, it was only the northern sky and not the entire sky; see "Geography", below.) Since the stars were considered to be Trell's eyes, it is possible that the Nelazan did not name the stars in a manner that other cultures might, but rather gave stars — or constellations — names related to attributes associated with Trell. === Geography === ~~'''Geography:'''~~ The Nelazan were likely located far to the north of Scadrial, close to or just south of its equivalent of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arctic_circle Arctic Circle]. ~~The Nelazan resided just south of their Arctic Circle, however, as it~~It was noted by [[Sazed]] that their winters had few hours of daylight, and their summers had few hours of darkness. (Had the Nelazan lived on or north of Scadrial's Arctic Circle, their winters would have had at least one day of total darkness, and their summers would have at least one day of total daylight.) == Post-Catacendre == Trelagism may have diverged from its original beliefs since the end of the Final Empire. ~~However,~~[[Miles ~~only~~Dagouter]] ~~one~~has been the only self-proclaimed adherent to the belief isso ~~encountered~~far ~~([[Miles Dagouter]])~~encountered, so the apparent divergence could simply be a personal opinion of the worshipper, or even his interpretation of beliefs that have yet to be revealed to readers. ;=== Miles Dagouter === Miles claimed to worship Trell and believed that Trell created mankind, but made no comments regarding the Thousand Eyes or Nalt's eye, or even expressed a dislike of daylight. In addition, he held the beliefs that the ruling class should be made up exclusively of [[twinborn]] — a concept that might be unimaginable to the Nelazan — and that Trell had made men like him specially to right wrongs in the world.{{book ref\|aol\|11}} Whether or not he was a Trelagist is not clear; he referred to his religion as "Trellism", rather than "Trelagism", but he did name his god as "Trell". Miles also claimed, as he was being executed, that "the men of gold and red, bearers of the final metal, ''will'' come".{{book ref\|aol\|epilogue}} It is unknown if this was a personal belief, or a tenet of Trellism. ;=== Bleeder === A metal spike used by [[Paalm\|Bleeder]] for [[Hemalurgy]] is made up of an [[Trellium\|unknown metal]] not known to [[Harmony]]. [[Marasi]] speculates that the metal is from an another god and resolves to find out more about Trell.{{book ref\|sos\|epilogue}} ;=== The Set === The [[Set]] are agents of Trell.{{book ref\|bom\|epilogue}} [[Edwarn Ladrian]] brags of the Set having [[kandra\|Faceless Immortals]] of their own. One of these tells Edwarn that Scadrial has become too dangerous, and that Trell intends to destroy it instead of using the [[Set]] to rule it. He also says Edwarn will be allowed to serve in another Realm, perhaps indicating that Trell's followers are [[Worldhoppers]], or at least aware of the different [[Realms]]. == Notable Trelagists == * [[Miles Dagouter]]{{book ref\|aol\|14}} == Other Notes ==
