Besides the peasant lets the writer show the world through the charachters eyes as new, instead of the info dump that would result from a noble. I think not only plot wise, but stylistically the farmer bit works.
The past is just that, the past. You can only truly live by looking to the future!
should the Dragon be a simple guy or noble born?

Ironically, the hero of humble origins is itself a reaction to the previous noble hero.

I'm thinking of a character similar to Beslan Mitsobar before his mother died

How can a commentary on millenia of legend and literature be "seminal"? Wouldn't it be the opposite? *NM*
