My personal preferred belief is that the heroes are blessed by the Divines to exact whatever challenge is needed to be overcome in each major conflict. That's why we must always jump through hoops to get things done (be infeted by Corprus and survive, learn from the Greybeards, all that stuff). Ordinary people in extraordinary cirumstances that must overcome tasks and challenges and must face great evil. The little man rising above it all, kind of story.
