Lore Watch Episode 57: Xe’ra and Illidan

Welcome to episode 57 of Lore Watch! Lore Watch is a podcast that explores a single lore subject about the World of Warcraft, Diablo, Overwatch, or any other games that interest us. Join hosts Anne Stickney, Matthew Rossi, and Joe Perez for an in-depth look at the evolving stories of the games we all love.

This week our Lore Watchers Anne, Matt, and Joe answer a few emails regarding the naaru prime Xe’ra and Illidan Stormrage. Along the way there’s discussion about the nature of the naaru and the Light, Illidan’s actions when meeting Xe’ra face to face, and a look into Velen’s role in the story.
