The term "plunder" has been employed across literature to evoke both the material consequences of war and a broader metaphor for greed and exploitation. In historical narratives, it often describes the forceful seizure of wealth during conquest, as when armies divide spoils among soldiers or take ill-gotten gains from the vanquished [1, 2, 3]. At times its use is more abstract, symbolizing not only physical theft but also a moral decay or the ravaging of ideals, as seen when it stands in for the destruction of dignity or even dreams [4, 5]. Whether describing the brutal realities of ancient conflicts or serving as a colorful metaphor in poetic expression [6, 7], the word consistently underlines an interplay between the violence of battle and the inevitable allure of sumptuous reward.
