ao shin undermining a dragons power

So I'm gonna get strait to the point. If Ao Shin is released I don't think he should be a powerful dragon, but rather a weak one. perhaps only a child who hasn't fully developed its powers yet, or maybe he is dying and has become frail in his old age. not a dragon of legend who rules over all storm. the reason I say this is because he would undermine the fantasy and the power of a dragon.

Now before you crucify me in the name of the internet. Think about it for a second. The fantasy of a dragon is a being who is powerful beyond imagination, a beast that does what it wants and is above mortal matters. A monster that can topple the most powerful army's and not have a scratch on him. Not something that can be bested by a yordle with a blow dart. Even taking from the games lore It took JarvanIV himself, his 10 men (that he hand picked himself no less) and a half dragon to just kill one of these beasts and he even lost 8 of the men he had brought. Heck Even in game itself you need to be cautious when going into the dragon pit and this is while you have legendary items that grant an amazing amount of power. even in late game when you have six legendary items; SIX! you will come out quite damaged from soloing dragon unless you have a good amount of life steal.

With Ao shin's release it would undermine the vary fantasy that is a dragon. So why not make him just a child where there is a great evil rising in Ionia and his father meet his demise at its hands. And now he is on a quest to avenge his dead father or something. And also this would help reinforce the fantasy of a dragon since he is but a child but fighting these legendary hero's on even ground.

But, hey enough about my thought's what are yours. And if you agree with me in Ao Shin being a child what would his story be and what would his personality be like?

Dragons are not necessarily beings of unimaginable power, it varies quite wildly across fiction. They can be anything from having godlike abilities to simply being giant, fire breathing lizards.
