To people who played the game, who do you think refers the title to?
The Boy?
The Creature?
someone else entirely?
What are they the last of and what were they guarding?
It could refer to the second creature. It was actually guarding the nest and the only one of its kind (wingless)
It might even refer to the master of the valley.
Or the title was just a means to subvert your expectations and surprise you in the end.
“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”
- George Orwell, ‘1984’
