The trade of dragonglass, or obsidian as some maesters call it, presents fascinating economic patterns across Westeros, Essos, and Sothoryos. Dragonstone holds the largest deposits, making House Targaryen's ancestral seat a crucial trade hub. The Free Cities, particularly Volantis, pay handsomely for this volcanic glass. Most intriguing is how the Children of the Forest valued it above gold, suggesting an ancient economy based on its supernatural properties rather than mere aesthetic value.
