So this episode apparently takes place after the Main Six ponies have already supposedly stopped Opaline's evil plan, which I assume will be Chapter 6 of Make Your Mark. I'm not sure what would count as spoilers regarding that, but it seems that by this point, the Dragonlands are now fully accessible (at least via the Marestream) with at least three dragons active enough to greet visitors with a tribal dance, so these dragons apparently live as a tropical tribal culture. Anyway, the majority of this episode is spent showing an entry initiation given to the ponies by the dragons called the Lavarynth, which is a trio of challenges meant to test their bravery, wisdom, and creativity. Zipp takes on the bravery challenge by flying through a cave full of lava falls and swinging giant axes. Misty takes on the wisdom challenge (thanks to her experience from living under Opaline) by realizing that the scary monsters in the second cave are just harmless shadows. And Izzy takes on the creativity challenge by arranging everyone around to make a shadow puppet of a dragon to open the door out of the last cave. With the Lavarynth completed, the dragons officially welcome the ponies to the Dragonlands. I certainly like episodes like this where the focus characters have to work together and use their talents to overcome a gauntlet of challenges. As much as I would like to consider this among my favorite episodes, the lack of context regarding how the ponies got to meet and be on friendly terms with the dragons makes it difficult for me to really appreciate this episode that way it was likely intended. Hopefully, after Chatper 6 of MYM comes out to provide that missing context, I might find this episode more favorable, but for now, it's difficult for me to like something that leaves me confused.
