The dragon being an effective metaphor for one’s issues and insecurities holding them back

There’s an old quote I like that says something like “that which you want most will be found where you least want to look”
my fav DnD dragon analogy quote

“Fairy tales are more than true – not because they tell us dragons exist, but because they tell us dragons can be beaten.”
