Welcome to Jen’s Lore Corner, a podcast about the lore of the Diablo video game series. This podcast started as a segment on the Shattered Soulstone podcast. I decided to re-release those segments in their own podcast.
New content started with Episode 010.
In this episode, I talk about the the lore that is connected to the Diablo IV video that was released during BlizzCon 2019. I wrote a lengthy blog post about it, called Diablo IV: By Three They Come, before I recorded this episode.

Neko Atsume is a game where the goal is to collect cats. Players do this by adding interesting items into their yard/home and waiting for the cats to use them.
The Mushroom House costs 25 gold fish in the Neko Atsume store. The flavor text for this item says: It’s as if a mushroom is growing in your room. A fluffy bed-house for cats. The inside is made of pure organic cotton.

I started off Season 18 fairly early, but not on the first night it opened. Unfortunately, I was unable to create much content from it due to technical difficulties and chronic illness getting in the way.
