To me, this episode feels like a rehash of "The Lost Treasure of Griffonstone".

The dragons need to learn the concept of friendship, just like the griffons.

Ember is tomboyish, but learn to open up and befriend Ponies, like Gilda.

Spike helps Ponyville gain allies in the dragons, just like Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash did with the griffons.

There's a perilous search involving a powerful artifact (the Bloodstone Scepter here, the Idol of Boreas in "Lost Treasure of Griffonstone").

I don't know...this episode was good, but "Lost Treasure of Griffonstone" was better. It seems everything this episode tried to do, "Lost Treasure of Griffonstone" already did it better,
