I agree with Scots Lass, so much story in such a little package. That takes real talent.

He does not look as if he is in a fit state for any sort of army.
Those woodworms use waterboard torture methods with their really chewy tasty captives!
Glad he made it to his chair safely.

He does indeed look completely tuckered out!
Thank goodness for that! No wonder he's exhausted!

He did well to escape the rogue woodworms. No wonder he's tired.
