Utaku Plains

The Utaku Plains were refered by poets and storytellers as the most beautiful place in Rokugan.

Endless Plains
The plains seemed endless, stretching out of the from horizon to horizon with almost nothing to interrupt the view. The Utaku cultivated it only to the extent necessary to fulfill their duties. The majority of developed land consists of small villages and towns with very carefully constrained fields. The maximum amount of foodstuff was harvested for the sacred herds of the legendary Utaku steeds.

Utaku Palace
The ancestral castle of the Utaku, Shiro Utaku Shojo, sat in the middle of the plains, and was much more a part of the landscape than most castles.
