Taeris paused a moment, before pushing the plate in Ollie's direction for the boy to have.

"Not what I meant.  As much as you might like it, I don't think we can have you tag along without having you work or teaching you anything." Taeris thought that since it seemed he might have Ollie following him around for the foreseeable future, he should take some responsibility for the boy. Rhaela and Arik hadn't really done so, and they were little more than children themselves after all.

Ollie'd learn things from these people that no boy should probably learn. Taeris knew a thing or two about having an early end to your childhood, and had decided the best thing for Ollie to have from here on out would be direction. And unless Ollie did learn something, by the time they reached Cespar there would be very little other places for him to go but the kitchens again.
