>>883909 I found that part of the conversation difficult to read myself, but Rankaku appears to be saying that he was fortunate that they left behind a trace of the the destroyed Soul Piece. If he had not had that, Celes would no longer have been able to be used because (and this is where it gets confusing) he says that if two Soul Pieces had been used consynchronously, Celes's soul would have crumbled. So ... I don't really get why he'd be thanking them, and that's why I think I must be reading something wrong or else the explanation comes later in the volume.
As for Radim's motives, it all boils back down to Celes's father. I forget what it is that he did, but iirc he's not the hero that Celes and the others envision him as. In fact, I think that's the whole "Rose-sama, you must atone for your sins" bit that the male general somberly gives Rose before she's Materialized in Volume 2. Yeah, I just pulled it up (it starts on page "papipo_0605_173" assuming you have the same DL I do), with Radim telling Celes that the truth is, her father didn't die by protecting former King Adonis from an assassin -- according to Adonis (who told Rose, who confessed when being Materialized), Duran Metalias was premeditatively murdered. Celes can't believe that King Adonis would have had her father killed, and Radim goes on to further explain what this means for their relationship. *shrug* It's taking me a bit too long right now and I don't have the time to look up all these random kanji, so I guess we'll just have to sit tight and wait for SaHa to get around to it in the next year or so. Maybe the next few months if someone is that eager to commission it.
