There are many stories in the world about good vs evil, very few have any shade of grey rules.... you are either a hero or a villan.
Many of the hero's we read about start off appearing to be normal (a muggle) and get wisked away from their homes and taken on an adventure. For many they get a mentor, typically a wizard, who guides and helps them right up until the critical moment and then suddenly they are no longer there.
Its strange some of the names which are given to the main characters. Somethings I think when reading stories as the characters grow up maybe they should get renamed to:
Douglas O. U. Thoughful
Elf Our Scout
Fi Vengful
Sofi Venutre
Seth Reeliant
I guess they have a point in not naming them:
Sir Zaytsev Enrimmon
Abdul-Haafiz ER Ohinoyi of Ebiralandd
Logan I Never
And worse than this are what the names, titles and locations the evil characters are labelled with. I guess the following would not strike as much fear into the heart of our readers:
Evil Army Supply Train
Ogres Northern Exchange
Sorcerer of East Vale, Enforcement Necromancer
Zombies En Route to Oblivion
Tarantula Whispering Owls
Orc No Ears
The point is .... you're probably laughing now at the silly names and how could anyone take the fight as seriously if it was at:
Fortress of Odor Underfoot Rot
Tower of Window Omission
Ship Invisible Xcape
