    3:48 That is an interesting concept about how Dungeon master's great powers work, he implies that he can not simply create something out of thin air but rather he draws from things within the world potentially setting things out of balance!

    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.
