Dragon's Treasure

There is nothing more precious to a dragon

than its treasure.

There is nothing more precious

than the sparkling emeralds

or the glittering onyx

or the shining ebony.

There is nothing more precious to a dragon

than lethal daggers of

purest steel.

There is nothing more precious to a dragon

than the toughest of armor

and the toughest of hides.

There is nothing more precious to a dragon

than her treasure-like children.

Ready to face the world and life.

Nothing worth more than that.
