Trialitarian automorphisms are related to automorphisms of order $3$ of the Dynkin diagram of type $D_4$. Octic étale algebras with trivial discriminant, containing quartic subalgebras, are classified by Galois cohomology with value in the Weyl group of type $D_4$. This paper discusses triality for such étale extensions.
