The built up to finally have earth dragon's meat is paid off. Elleland's characterization is fleshed out a bit more in this episode. He can be a great comic relief character but we probably won't be seeing him again after this episode. Also Mukoda has more authority over his familiars. He finally can say no to them (well, as long it's not Sui asking things lol)! Fel and Dora-chan listen to Mukoda a lot more despite not agreeing with his decision. More fleshing out Dora-chan's characterization about its opinion for cannibalism since they're eating dragon's meat and Dora-chan is a dragon. And foreshadowing for more adventure towards the end of the episode; they're entering a dungeon!
