I fell into
A gauntlet of fire
I went down, down, down
And the flames grew higher...
Anyway, this episode is a Spike fan's dream come true: a good episode about Spike, that doesn't hinge on him being incompetent or doubting himself. Also, it has some cool worldbuilding for dragons. In short, it's the episode that bronies everywhere really wanted "Dragon Quest" to be.
And Rarity still mines her own gems. That didn't stop being a thing that happened.
My one complaint is that it's explicitly canon now that all unicorn telekinesis produces visible light. Aside from how that disproved my fanfic, it raises a question of continuity. If those magical auras are visible to everypony, then why didn't anyone notice when Queen Chrysalis replaced Princess Cadance? Cadance's aura was teal, and Chrysalis's aura was green, even when she was in disguise.
