Deep in the bowels of the mountains of iron, far from prying eyes lies the fabled Hoard of lore, one of the most closely guarded secrets of Dragonkind. In the hoard of lore, dragons, like this one, come together from all over the world to share knowledge, each making a contribution of what texts they can, for the right to peruse the library, damaging nothing and taking nothing. Even the most selfish of dragons never violate this trust, some say this is because of something ingrained in the very nature of Dragonkind, but most believe it is because no-one would dare enrage thousands of Draconic librarians glutted on magical lore.
