Possibly out of respect for Master Hortath, the Council decided that the boy's fate would have been to leave the Jedi Order anyway. Years later, Jolee Bindo retold the story of Master Hortath to Revan, in answer to the question of why Bindo himself had left the Order. However, he admits to Revan that his leaving the order and Master Hortath's story are not truly related; the padawan and Hortath were before his time. He also said that he did not really leave the order, saying that "It left me".
