    13:57 Venger seems to be implying that there may be a little bit of sympathetic magic at work, since Eric has both Dungeon master's powers and robes he may have also been imparted with some of DM's knowledge as well. After all up until this point Eric has been shown to know things he should not know and even talks like Dungeon master from time to time, like a spot on impression even!

    When Dungeon Master tells Eric that once he is touched with power, he will never be the same after that, it seems to foreshadow the fact that Eric will be very instrumental in saving the realm and redeeming Venger later on, as was proven in the Requiem episode.

    I mean it is clear that Eric was adept at Magic why didn't him and Presto which magical weapons after this!
    Eric with Presto's Hat would've been so much more useful. Presto would've been about as adept as Eric with the shield.

    Very funne episode. I think Eric is the most notable character. Maybe he became a cavalier (paladin) because he can be really brave

    Kind of an odd choice to make dungeon master actually part of the world.
