I tried to thank the hippopotamus for the taffy...
Post s3 I wondered if arc 2 would take certain Ezran things (his games of hide and seek, for example) and twist them. That certainly wound up being the case (ie. the game of hide and seek for the prison), but another thing I wondered about was Ezran's taffy dreams from 1x04 and 2x03: "and he was right. I was delicious." It's another way where, although having a kind of non-opinion on magic (dark or otherwise) throughout the series, we still see Ezran contribute to it in season one in really interesting, consistent, allegorical ways.
You cannot consume something and leave it the same. If you take it carelessly, it will not be able to conceptualize or understand your gratitude. "If you love a flower you do not pick it," etc.
