In Howling Abyss, the ghost guy who was one of the iceborn (excuse me i forget his name), always makes derogatory remarks towards yordles. "A yordle? Yech." However i dont remember a particular antagonism towards the small folk in the Iceborn lore, nor in the Frejlord lore. Was wondering if this could be addressed, im curious whats behind this.
Greyor may be from the time were yordles looked like Gnar... and had the rage gene... Times had changed since that.

Yordles are the outcast of society in Valoran. They literally have a wall around their city and won't allow outsiders in. It's only natural that some would dislike someone that turns their back on the rest of the continent.
However, they are not necessarily as I described. They are still capable of diplomacy and they hold good diplomatic relationship with Demacia and Ionia. The wall itself, in the old lore, is a natural formation, but they settled on that spot for a reason.
Probably not all Iceborns hated Yordles in the past - Iceborns are pratically extinct by the way - but only a few dislike them; like that ghost.
Remember that Greyor is several hundred(or even thousand?) years old.
The relationship with freljordans and yordles might have changed over the years.
