|Introduction=Vale’s Edge is a highland plateau that stretches eastward from the base of the [[Khargaath Range]], forming the transitional terrain between the mountain interior and the arid basin lands of the [[Telenkar Fold]] and [[Sora Basin]]. Characterized by fractured stone, gradual elevation change, and a steep escarpment along its eastern rim, the region serves as both a logistical corridor and a geographic boundary within the central [[Sanctuary Vale]].

|Geography=The plateau is composed of layered basalt and fractured stone shelves, gradually sloping downward from the Khargaath highlands before breaking sharply at a rocky escarpment. It extends across a broad east–west band with sparse vegetation, shallow gullies, and dry air. Surface water is nearly absent. The terrain becomes increasingly unstable along the descent toward [[Kelath Fall]] and the rim above the Fold.

|Cultural Significance=Vale’s Edge provides the only known overland connection between [[Dul-Val]] and the river lowlands to the east. A narrow route spans from the Dul-Val region southeast toward [[Enen-Zhal]], which guards the only formal descent. At its midpoint lies [[Kelath-Tar]], which supports downward cargo transfer to the [[Sora River]]. While technically traversable, the route is known for its logistical challenges and is often bypassed in favor of the river system for large cargo movement.
