This Month in the Vale

November 2026 in the Vale

One page for the whole month: the drops on the calendar, the books and notes that landed, and the Far Shore pool gathering across the sea. Everything here is read from the Vale's own calendars and shelves, so what you see is what the month actually holds.

Drops and restocks

On the drop calendar

Friday, November 6

Pokémon TCG wave expected

The third expected US wave in this run. Drop alerts go out the day anything lands.

Drop calendar and alerts

Fresh on the shelf right now

The shelf as it stands today, scarcest first. When a piece here is the only one we have, its card says so, and it means exactly one.

New books

New on the bookcase

No new book landed in November. The full bookcase, 23 titles and counting, lives on the Books page.

Field Notes

From the journal

No new Field Note is pinned up in November yet. The journal so far lives on Field Notes.

The Far Shore

The pre-order pool is open

Across the sea, the Far Shore shelf lists 262 goods from our overseas wholesale supplier, in English, Japanese, Simplified Chinese, Indonesian, Korean, with 262 priced on the shelf today. Orders join the US batch pool, and when the pool reaches its $1,000 minimum it sails: freight, sorting at the supplier's Tavern, then tracked delivery to your door. Please allow 4 to 6 weeks for a pre-order to arrive, and every order stands behind the Verdant Vale Pre-Order Guarantee.

The pool meter itself hangs where members can see it, the same way our supplier keeps its own pool behind a sign-in. Sign in on the Far Shore page and you can watch the pool fill as orders join it.
