Book excerpt: Ladon's Lapse is the story of Draco, the Dragon. In mythical times his job was to guard valuable objects, one of them being the famous Hespa tree, a tree that bore golden apples. While attempting to steal the apples, Hercules killed the dragon. By tricking Atlas, Hercules ended up with the apples. The constellation is in honor of Ladon (now known as Draco) for his faithfulness in guarding the apples and a reminder that people should be constantly vigilant and watchful to everything and be prepared for whatever is coming.
