The Vale proper is a land of lush, fertile plains and rolling hills, renowned for its abundant agriculture and verdant beauty. The region is blessed with rich soil, nourished by the rivers that flow down from the Mountains of the Moon, giving it the potential to be one of the most productive and prosperous areas in Westeros. By the coming of the Andals, the Vale’s fertile lands are gradually being shaped, with smaller fields of oats and barley scattered throughout the region. The true scope of the Vale's agricultural wealth is yet to be realized, but the land holds great promise for the future. This fertile foundation supports the towns, castles, and villages scattered across the lands of Mountain and Vale, from the ancient strongholds of Runestone to Strongsong.<ref> Martin, The World of Ice and Fire, p. 163.</ref> | The Vale proper is a land of lush, fertile plains and rolling hills, renowned for its abundant agriculture and verdant beauty.
