A quick definition of ligius:

Ligius is a term used in history and law to describe a person who is bound to another by a solemn relationship, like a subject to a king or queen. This relationship is based on loyalty and service, and the person who is bound is called a liege. A liege is someone who owes allegiance and service to a feudal lord or monarch. Liege homage is the pledge of loyalty and services paid by one sovereign to another. Liege poustie is a Scottish law term that refers to the lawful power of a person to dispose of their property when they are in good health. This power is different from deathbed power, which is not considered lawful.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A person bound to another by a solemn relationship, such as between a subject and a sovereign. This relationship is also known as "liege."

Example: In medieval times, a knight would be a ligius to their lord, meaning they were bound to serve and be loyal to them.
