A warrior or adventurer achieves the end of a quest. It's implied that he was part of a larger force but the rest have perished and he is… well, the title says what he is.
This could plausibly be from a war, but there are mythological overtones, with "hounds of hell" suggesting Cerberus, and arising from wreckage perhaps suggesting a phoenix. Perhaps there is a specific myth being alluded to, but I suspect that this is an original, sparingly-sketched story.
