@geekylou It's a thing though. Everyone assumes a dragon's hoard is gold or something, but what use has a dragon for gold or treasure? It's not like they use it for shopping. Most shops just politely get out of the way when a dragon comes to look at the wares.

Well, I say politely, but there's often running and screaming involved, and then people in uniforms coming to offer the dragon tribute in the form of weapons etc.

Really, if you want to separate a dragon from their hoard, do yourself a favour, and take your entire life savings and the deeds to your home (if applicable) and go visit a dodgy casino. It'll be less painful in the long term.
