How does the Market work in Dragonfire?

The Market is the game's trading hub. You can do two big things there:

1. Trade gold for base resources (wood, stone, iron, food)
2. Convert your surplus Relics (via Relic Shards) into targeted Relics, Cores and keys

The Market sells Relics per dragon (each dragon has its price in shards) as well as Rare / Epic / Legendary Cores.

It's the place that lets you steer your progression: instead of being stuck with the random Relics from chests, you convert your surplus into exactly what your key dragons need.

Not every exchange rate is confirmed here — check the prices shown in game — but the logic is clear: useless surplus → shards → what you actually need.
