They didn't think at all with the stories. They just stuck in something for entertainment. Those were just for fun.
Ya know, I don't even mind the idea of kids leading armies or whatever. They might be very skilled prodigies after all, and in another world, the way everything works could be different. It's how these people could SEEM to have an attitude of "justice" and being friendly to everyone, and at the same time get into huge fights, killing their OWN men for NO reason, just to "test something", and then they are still "good caring people" after it all. THAT'S the part that makes the story just totally stupid. You are right, if they are going to give something like THAT to us, they might as well not even HAVE any story at ALL, just present you with bad guys and allies and let you figure out a story. A 5 year old's idea of what's going on is sure to be better than that.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
