Dragon's Hoard

Did you know that in Tolkien's Middle-earth, a dragon's hoard was more than just gold? The vast treasure of Erebor, stolen by Smaug the Golden, carried a terrible curse. This ancient wealth, steeped in the dragon's malice, radiated a corrupting madness known as "dragon-sickness," an insatiable greed that could poison the hearts of both Dwarves and Men. The Arkenstone itself, the heart of the mountain, became the focal point of this ancient blight.
