Yeardley (Japanese: ヤードリー Yeardley) is a servant of Ludveck of Felirae, who assisted him in his rebellion in Crimea. According to Heather, he traveled from town to town in Crimea, stirring up the rebellion and recruiting volunteers to serve Ludveck. This mission eventually brought him to the rural town of Ohma, where Nephenee, Brom, and Heather were forced to defend themselves from rebels whom he had set on them.

Personality

Although the rhetoric he used to recruit supporters for Ludveck revolved around the victories of "Ike the patriot" and his allies, and how Elincia was supposedly squandering their work in the Mad King's War,[1] Yeardley had no respect at all for Ike's veteran allies and believed they were only obstacles to Ludveck's ambition.[2] He was very easily flustered when Heather worked out his plan without any help from him or anyone else.[3]

Quotes

Battle quotes

Yeardley: Ah, survivors of the war. You would be better off dead and forgotten. You can't stop the duke!
Nephenee: Duke?
Yeardley: Yes. Our master, Lord Ludveck, duke of Felirae, will rule over Crimea. When our plan is complete, the queen will be erased from history. Now then! I believe it's time for you to die...
Nephenee: Right...

— Yeardley, when fighting Nephenee in Part II, Chapter 1 of Radiant Dawn.

Brom: Hey, you! Who put ya up ta this? Politics ain't my strong suit, so ya can spare me the details, but I know you're up ta no good, and someone's behind it.
Yeardley: Hah! Clamor all you like, but it won't change a thing. Revolution is taking root across Crimea. Our plan is flawless. We're getting rid of that...girl! We shall have a new ruler in Melior... Soon... Lord Ludveck, duke of Felirae, will wear the crown.
Brom: Ludveck? From Felirae?
Yeardley: That is correct. And you shall perish with that name fresh on your lips, you blundering cow!

— Yeardley, when fighting Brom in Part II, Chapter 1 of Radiant Dawn.

Yeardley: Be gone with you, thief! We won't have filth like you stand in the way of our supremacy!
Heather: So! You’re the ones sent by Ludveck of Felirae?! You've been stirring up these little revolts all over the place.
Yeardley: What?! How did you know?!
Heather: I see things here and there. But half of it was just a guess! ...Judging by your reaction, though, it seems I was right.
Yeardley: You...little...
Heather: Tsk... Don't get so steamed up, Mr. Fancypants! You just look silly. Nothing personal... I just don't like men like you!

— Yeardley, when fighting Heather in Part II, Chapter 1 of Radiant Dawn.

    Young man: The queen!
    Yeardley: We’ve been violated! Daein robbed us of families, friends, and homes! We cannot reconcile with monsters! And now, our hated enemy is rebuilding to threaten us again. Will we stand by and accept this?
