One popular contender is from Greek mythology. In order to ascend to the throne of Thessaly as the rightful heir and reclaim it from his power-hungry uncle, Jason was tasked with going on a quest to retrieve the Golden Fleece. He accepted and proceeded to gather a crew of heroes and set sail aboard the Argo.
A fight ensued ending with Jason as the victor and the dragon retreating to the inside of the hill where Ljubljana Castle now sits to pout. To this day, whenever he feels particularly sour he rumbles and causes the earth to shake. Could this be the cause of the 1895 Ljubljana earthquake? Maybe. ;) Why a dragon who lost his only battle became the protector of the city is a bit beyond me though.
