It's just what they do. The problem is when they're there but don't really DO anything. Dawntrail didn't really give them much purpose other than filling out Trusts, since the story is so focused on Wuk Lamat instead.
That's one element of DT that amused me: Estinien's presence. Him being in Tural actually felt more natural than the other Scions. Not sure if this was because he didn't have an agenda and just headed that way because (basically) 'why not' but, for me, it worked.
And I almost feel that they should've taken that approach with the Warrior of Light.
