Utvara

The Utvara Reclamation Zone is a harsh land situated outside the main city of Ravnica. As a barony, it falls under the reign of Teysa Karlov.
==Description==
The zone is not under the direct control of any guild, although the Orzhov Syndicate began a small settlement there. The majority of Utvara is controlled by various divisions of the Gruul Clans. The Husk surrounds it, and the southern two thirds are a small town. The main seat of Selesnya's power in this region was Vitar Yescu, an enormous living tree (but still minuscule compared to Vitu-Ghazi) that produced a pollen that served as an antigen to a local plague.
==History==
The Utvara province was once part of the ancient hunting grounds of Niv-Mizzet, whose first lair is supposedly located somewhere within.Cory J. Herndon. (2006.) Ravnica Cycle, Book II: Guildpact, Wizards of the Coast. It also once featured the Cauldron, the former seat of power for the Izzet League.Cory J. Herndon. (2006.) Ravnica Cycle, Book III: Dissension, Wizards of the Coast. Thousands of years ago, the region had been a vibrant section of the plane with a free zone that rivaled the central metropolis of Ravnica. After it was devastated by a Simic plague, the province was eventually rescued through Izzet ingenuity.Guildpact Player's Guide (2006). Wizards of the Coast.
