Jedah (Fire Emblem)

"And if suffering is the gods' will, what of it? Without their strength at its foundation, Valentia cannot sustain life."

- Jedah

Jedah is a villain of Fire Emblem Gaiden and Fire Emblem Echoes. Jedah was a priest of a strange cult group called the "Duma Faithful" who came in dispute with the High Priest Halcyon and banished him, gaining control over the church.

Synopsis
He is the father of Marla, Hestia and Sonya until he used them (except for Sonya) as sacrifices to Duma to turn them into witches. He also serves as adviser to Emperor Rudolf.

As Celica and her army pass through the Dead Man's Mire on the way to Duma Tower, Jedah contacts her in secret. Jedah explains that Duma will be cured of his madness and Mila will be returned to Zofia, saving both kingdoms and preventing Alm from fighting further. Celica notes that she has no reason to believe him, but Jedah says he will await her response atop Duma Tower.

Jedah meets Celica again at the Swamps of Duma, whom explains that she will not make a decision until she meets with Mila. Jedah attempts to kill the rest of her army because Celica's life is the only one he needs, though he ultimately returns to Duma Tower. Jedah can also at this time reunite with Sonya, who vows revenge on him for what he did to her sisters. Once Celica reaches Jedah on Duma Tower, he reveals that Mila sealed herself and Falchion away.
