Clyde has nothing to do but, in reality, he happens to be the busiest man alive. He is the last elf and though he was once a human now he has become used to these new forms. Being a member of the Biscuit’s Union was not a merry thing for him as constant baking was a sick job according to Clyde. All the teammates have disappeared now so there is no need to worry about the bakery work.
Clyde has to arrange for the eight members of the guild once again and if he fails in the task then death would be waiting for him, all dished up on a bed of thorns. He has suffered different consequences many times but has managed to survive on all occasions. Finding eight members this time is the hardest job given to the poor elf but he has to do it at all cost or there would be no future for him. The countdown for the seven days has begun and each day brings destruction closer to the elf who has no ally with him who can support him.
Eric Ugland after Killing Them Awfully and Second Story Man adds another one to the list of the classics. Neil Hellegers is the narrator of such books on most occasions thus it was not a new or difficult task that was given to him.
Narrating Clyde was not difficult because there is nothing complex about him, he has one single task in hand which is eating him up from the inside. Things speed up after the passing of every day because it is a battle for survival that Clyde has in hand.
