Heracles Apples

myth:heracles_apples

Eleventh Labor: the golden apples of the Hesperides, guarded by the never-sleeping hundred-headed dragon Ladon at the world's western edge, where Atlas holds up the sky. Heracles won the apples — by some tellings slaying Ladon, by others having Atlas fetch them — and the dragon was set in the sky as Draco, coiled about the pole. — Greek myth
