A Short Life
Ignis pulled an equal amount of gold to Kinryu, but his smelled of sulfur and pumice. He laired on the peak of an active volcano, and those smells couldn't be separated from him or his hoard.
"It will take hours to count all of this," Arad sighed. He then looked at Kinryu and Ignis, "Can we agree that metallic and chromatic have gifted the same amount? To avoid further conflict."
"I can always give you more," Kinryu said with a smile.
"Hoi! Kinryu, he said enough, is enough. Don't try breaking the balance." Ignis growled. In reality, he didn't want to spend more money from his hoard, and having Kinryu raise the price would force him to pull more.
Dragons are stingy, and red are the most conservative about spending their money. But that didn't mean they don't understand the concept of investing. A neutral negotiation ground could give them a strategic advantage in the future, and he won't skimp to secure a win.
