Yavimaya was a thickly forested mountainous region off the southern coasts of the Dominarian continent Terisiare, that by then had grown into a single sapient mind, driving out its old and new inhabitants. Home to the gorilla tribes and a refuge for the Fyndhorn elves after the Ice Age, these races united to overcome the forest's native hostility.
When Urza journeyed to Yavimaya to enlist its aid against the Phyrexians, Yavimaya and many of its denizens remembered Urza's role in decimating Argoth. Urza was then taken captive by the forest's emissary, Multani. For a time Urza's consciousness merged with Yavimaya's.
