i really rather liked the way the plot went with Ramza and Delita. it's really rather realistic. two friends, one of whom is constantly being sh** upon by He Who Must Be Beat Down (death to algus :shoot: ), then not sh** upon friend doesn't stick up for sh** upon friend, and sh** upon friend says, "sh**! what the sh** is all this sh**?" and then leaves. or gets blown up and resurfaces later, with no scars.

great loses tend to make people bitter, like the lose inflicted upon Delita by He Who Must Be Beat Down and Ramza's older brother who gave the order. Since it was Ramza's brother, I always thought Delita rather resented Ramza because of it, despite Ramza avenging Delita's lose and killing Ramza's brother/lucavi. Ramza was kinda dumb in his naivete'.
