I suppose you're talking about personal helplessness as opposed to helplessness as a macrocosm. Even then though, Fangus was supposed to be this rough tough shepherd if I remember correctly, who was pitted into an arena as a slave or something? I can't remember exactly, just that he wasn't exactly meek.
