Abbess Vale

Abbess Vale was a female mouse leader of Redwall Abbey. She assumed the role following either the death or retirement of Abbot Saxtus. Vale was in charge of Redwall when it experienced the Dryditch Fever epidemic, and helped care for the ill and dying Redwallers. Her friends included Bremmun, Faith Spinney, Brother Hollyberry, and Furgle the Hermit.

She was known to often be rather irritable, fretful, and tired.

Vale kept a journal as Abbess, which included directions to the Big Inland Lake written by Samkim inside it; this was used many generations later to help in the war against the Marlfoxes.
