Law Authority is tied to care and accountability.

Explanation Authority arises from responsibility, not status. Those who hold authority are expected to act with care toward people, land, and law. Power without accountability has no lawful standing.

Standard Authority must be exercised in a manner that protects continuity. Care includes restraint, attentiveness, and responsiveness to harm. Accountability is required to maintain trust and legitimacy.

Effect Authority that lacks care or accountability loses legitimacy. Lawful authority strengthens relationships and governance.
