The piece does a nice job of complicating the rather classic idea of the lone warrior hero, the living legend. It leans on the way that these stories often show a battle-worn and weary hero being pulled back into one last campaign, only here things are twisted and subverted nicely. For all that it bends expectations, it treats the tropes seriously rather than as a joke, and the payoff is solid and satisfying.
