I highly doubt bandits would give there money to thousands of draugr. I never said they were giving it to the draugr. they probably were making a camp there and they had to store their money somewhere. it's also possible that nords are putting gold there kinda like how people put flowers on a grave they would put gold in burial urns or something. I didn't say you did, I'm just refering to the fact that septims can be found on live draugr. are you saying that the draugr wouldn't find the gold and pick it up? Because there is just so much gold just lying on the ground right? C'mon man, there is no lorefriendly excuse for finding septims in these dungeons. Obviously there could be septims placed in urns by Nords paying there respects but there would be very few due to the fact that draugr attack everyone. 1. gameplay doesn't always equal lore. 2. perhaps draugr sleep alot. i read somewhere that they were slumbering until alduin returned
