Sir Myles of Olau (pronounced MIGH-lz of oh-LAU) was a knight, scholar, and the Baron of Olau. Myles was Spymaster and adviser to King Jonathan IV, and teacher of History and Laws of the Realm to the pages. He later married Eleni Cooper, George Cooper's mother, and adopted Alanna the Lioness as his daughter not long after she became a knight and revealed her true sex. He was generally referred to as a desk-knight, and had well-established philosophical issues with the concept of Chivalry.
