Ceorl's card text reads
QuoteAction: Spend 1 <spirit> r esource to ready Ceorl. Then, you may give control of Ceorl to another player. Any player may trigger this action. (Limit once per phase).
Does "another player" mean "a player other than the one triggering this action" or "a player other than the one currently controlling Ceorl"? I would interpret it as the former, but this really cuts down the versatility of this action. In a two-player game, you need Ceorl's owner to have Spirit or you can't pass control.
