Yata Posted May 29, 2016 Report Share Posted May 29, 2016 (edited) I just read this WoB an idea come to my mind: Q: In the ancient religion with Trell and Nalt, is Nalt in any relation to Nalthis?A: Tha’ts a good question. RAFO We know that Trell and Nalt was quite enemies in this Ancient Scadrial's Religion BUT: Some clue seems to point Autonomy as Trell (not confirmed of course) and if Nalt is related to Nalthis we know what Shard lives there. Autonomy and Endowment are quite opposite (maybe not as Ruin and Preservation) but their Intents are the farest I can Imagine. It's possible that the two Shards and maybe some situations between them Inspired this religion. For example Autonomy/Trell has his own single eye (the Sun) a metaphor of Individuality, while Endowment/Nalt has his thousand of eyes (the stars) a metaphor of spreading. Any idea pro or contros to this Idea/theory ? Edited May 29, 2016 by Yata 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asterion137 Posted May 29, 2016 Report Share Posted May 29, 2016 autonomy and devotion seem pretty far from each other too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yata Posted May 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2016 Many Shards may be see as far from Autonomy... Devotion, Dominion, Honor and Endowment are with some criteria "opposite" of Autonomy. But we know that many of them have already their Shardic problems (for example D&D died in the early Cosmere's History and Honor was fighting with Odium and after killed by Odium). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vissy Posted May 30, 2016 Report Share Posted May 30, 2016 Well, if Nalt can be linked to Nalthis, then does it logically follow that we should be able to link Trell to something else too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are some "connection" between Trell and Autonomy (I talk about the ancient Trell, we can't know if the modern Trell is the same of Trelagism)... but in the end I thinked that some old conflct between two enemy Shards (Endowment and Autonomy) inspired the ancient Trelagism. We have a WoB that says that in the Cosmere there isn't any kind of "god" don't relate in some way to Shard or Splinter of Shard.

ParadoxicalZen Posted May 31, 2016 Report Share Posted May 31, 2016 (edited) You have the two round the wrong way; Trell is the one with the thousand eyes, not Nalt Edited May 31, 2016 by ParadoxSpren 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yata Posted May 31, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2016 You have the two round the wrong way; Trell is the one with the thousand eyes, not Nalt you have absolutely right... I made my knowledge of the Cosmere change the in-world sources It's still possible some kind of twisting of the truth behind the Shards... but it's really less probably Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
