They are both doing something for another. For instance, Beowulf, though he seeked to become a legend, he still did his deed for his homeland. This became apparent towards the middle of the book when he brought back the loot to his own king.
The Pardoner does what he does for the Pope; which is ironic since Pope is supposed to be sinless and not do any wrong, yet he sends these pardonders out to make him money with fake relics of old saints.
