Beowulf 
The theme of the epic Beowulf is loyalty. This is true because loyalty was one of the most important qualities a man could possess in Beowulf's time. Beowulf’s loyalty and honor saved Hrothgar’s country and his people. Beowulf stands apart from other men because of his extraordinary loyalty to his king. He rushes to help Hrothgar each time he needs him, conquering Grendel, his mother, and the dragon. Beowulf has no ulterior motives, he has no desire for the Danish throne; he simply wants to help Hrothgar and do what is right. The failure to live up to this ideal on the part of some characters makes clear the extraordinary faithfulness and loyalty of Beowulf. However, it’s not only Beowulf who is loyal: almost every character in Beowulf is loyal to someone, in their own way.

Kite runner 
The Kite Runner is about friendship, betrayal, and the price of loyalty. It is about the bonds between fathers and sons, and the power of fathers over sons - their love, their sacrifices, and their lies.
