Well, as always fellow delvers, I hope this helped shed some light on just how big a treasure heap can be. Remember, Dungeon Masters, that's a *lot* of coin, and unless the player's didn't lose their henchmen to subdual attempts, it's going to take more than a few trips back to the village with this stuff!
Of course, that's not to say something else might not take an interest in what they can't haul off the first time...!
