Official Rules / The Dragon and the Builder

Hey guys,
I have a question that I think I know the answer to, but would love some other folks' takes. I scanned the CAR, but couldn't find the answer. Apologies if I missed it.
Today, during a playthrough of Carc + T&B + P&D, I ( ) drew a dragon tile and elected to place it as indicated, to extend and complete the small city. This was my first tile of the turn. Though the attached image is taken slightly before I did so, I did move the fairy down one tile to protect my follower (and also score three bonus points, when the movement was over), before moving the dragon.
Then, as the first person to move the dragon, I elected to move it up and away from my builder. But my question is:
Had the builder been removed from the city (such as by the dragon) I just extended and completed before the city was scored, would I still have been entitled to the builder-turn?
My guess is yes. Obviously had that not been a dragon tile, the city would have been scored, the builder and follower returned to my supply, and then I would have proceeded with my builder-turn as normal. But I feel that removing the builder first before scoring changes things a bit and gives me some pause, so I wanted to see what you all thought!
