| | #REDIRECT [[Radiant Garden#Villain's Vale]] |
| The '''Villain's Vale''' is an unreachable location from ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''. It acts as a base of operations for [[Maleficent]] and her forces of [[darkness]].

| Villain's Vale does not appear in ''Kingdom Hearts''; instead, we see Maleficent holding meetings in the chapel area in [[Hollow Bastion]], the same area that [[Sora]] battles Maleficent in her human form. Why Maleficent didn't use Villain's Vale in the first game is unknown. Possibly, she found that the castle of Hollow Bastion was much grander and macabre, perfect for Maleficent's tastes and left the Villain's Vale after she had taken over the castle.

| === ''Kingdom Hearts II'' ===
| |
| Villain's Vale appears for the first time in ''Kingdom Hearts II''. After learning that Maleficent was killed, [[Pete]] showed up here, to see if it was true. He found an empty fortress, but was soon greeted by a Diablo and a resurrected Maleficent. She begins to use it as a base of operations, even though now there are only two in her league.
| |
| | |
| When Sora and co. first arrive in Hollow Bastion, at the base of the Vale is a swarm of [[Shadow]] Heartless. Leon and the rest of the [[Hollow Bastion Restoration Committee]] wish to restore the city but need to get rid of the Heartless first. After the [[Battle of the 1000 Heartless]], the base of the Vale is no longer surrounded by Heartless. The Heartless were probably amassed together by Maleficent and Pete for their army and then used to attack Hollow Bastion. The Heartless, however, sided with Organization XIII and did not finish attacking the city.

| | |
| Villain's Vale appears in several flashbacks (or rather, flashforwards) seen in [[Timeless River]]. As Maleficent treats Pete badly after his failure, the latter begins wishing he could return to the old days when he captained the Steamboat Willie. In response, the worlds gave Pete a doorway to his past to atone for his mistakes. He shows the door to Maleficent, who orders him to go to the past and destroy the [[Cornerstone of Light]] so that they may take control of [[Disney Castle]] in the present.

| |
| The fortress also acts as the driving force of most of Maleficent's actions during this game. After losing Hollow Bastion to the Hollow Bastion Restoration Committee, she deems the crumbling fortress unworthy, and begins searching for a new, grander castle in which to rule, setting her sights on both Disney Castle and the [[Castle that Never Was]].

| It can now be seen from the Bailey of [[Radiant Garden]] in the distance, and the Ravine Trail and following maps lead one closer to the fortress from the town. In ''Kingdom Hearts II'', if the player uses the [[Reaction Command]] on the left balcony in the Bailey at the Radiant Garden, the resulting text says that he can see the "Villain's Vale, where [[Maleficent]] once resided." Another mention lies in [[Jiminy's Journal]]; in the story section, Jiminy states "In Villain's Vale the Heartless were swarming, as Nobodies darted about." The dark depths is very close to it, and gives a good view of the whole citadel. Both [[Xemnas]] and [[Sephiroth]] stand on the edge of the cliff, looking over the fortress at different points in the game. In Sephiroth's case, he overlooks Villains Vale preceding the one battle that is supposedly the hardest battle in the original ''Kingdom Hearts II''.

| ==Appearance==
| |
| The Villain's Vale is a large fortress comprised of several spindly, crooked, golden-brown towers topped with black cone towers, also crooked and spindly. It resides over what appears to be the ruins of a tiny village of ramshackle stone buildings, and its facade is dominated by a giant [[Heartless]] emblem.
| |
| | |
| Inside, the only place ever seen is the the tower where Maleficent and Pete speak. It's a seemingly open room with a balcony looking back at the main Hollow Bastion area. On the inside, the walls have a sliding water effect, but not much more is seen.

| ==Trivia==
| |
| *Through a cheat device, the player can access an area called "Villain's Vale", which is the meeting place of Pete and Maleficent.
