Worthiness and TrustTheme
Characters repeatedly measure one another before deciding whether to follow or serve, from Stix refusing to serve a child he does not deem worthy, to Bibs offering to guide a stranger through danger, to Orleus keeping careful distance from events he has not chosen to enter. The question of who has earned loyalty runs through each encounter.
