4. Personal Definition

I wrote this one because I play Allowat Sakima and wanted to more thoroughly understand him. Loyalty is great, it is one of if not the greatest of a scouts obligations. In this life we are given opportunities to help others that are placed in our way. If we are firm in our commitment to serve others, if we are loyal to our superior who placed us in that situation, then we can and will be given more opportunities to aid his children because he knows he can trust us with his children.
