Episode Seventeen: The Sacred Sakura

Ad Astra Travelers! Welcome back to another episode of Tales of Teyvat: A Genshin Lore Podcast. In our last episode, we discussed the lore of the mysterious Viridescent Venerer (AKA Viri). We're really hoping we'll learn more about her, and if she's The Knave, in some upcoming Sumeru updates!  This week, we're going to be talking about the Sacred Sakura. From the Thunder Sakuras, to the shrine, to the multiple cleansing rituals, to the lore of how the Sacred Sakura Tree came to be, we have a lot to cover in this episode! Our hosts will also touch on what Yokai and Kitsune are, and discuss all the crazy timey wimey stuff that happens all across Teyvat! Our heads are spinning like the Traveler traveling into Makoto's Plane of Consciousness, so come hang out as we make sense of it all!  Visit ⁠⁠⁠talesofteyvat.com⁠⁠⁠ to find a comprehensive lore sheet that provides visual aids and links to videos and important Genshin Impact Resources.
