Seeing the scenes hurt, and Radley weeps inside at all that Keldor had suffered.
“I’m so sorry,” he says. “You’ve been through so much.”
He had known about some of the scenes, but not all, and of course seeing them was worse than just hearing of them. Having kind people like Dekker and Amelia and losing them was so cruel, and being blamed for Amelia’s death on top of that seemed too horrible to be real. And losing his father too, when he had hoped so endlessly to be loved by him, also seemed unfair. Radley doubted Miro would ever be what Keldor hoped, but he understood Keldor’s feelings so deeply since he had longed so much for his grandmother to love him. If she was gone, he knew he would be devastated at the loss of any chance of that.
Hordak turns his stomach. Something doesn't seem right with him at all. He definitely feels that Hordak is preying on Keldor’s longings and is not truly sincere. He wants to talk with Keldor about that.
He is about to when the voice startles him and he looks around in confusion for the source of it. "Huh? Who are you?!" He didn’t hear a voice during his own experience, nor has he heard one during the experiences of others he has been trying to help. In the other experiences, it seemed like the sufferers themselves who showed the various scenes. In this one, was it this mysterious voice showing the scenes? That made it seem all the more urgent to try to help Keldor.
He takes a deep breath. "I think I understand," he says to Keldor. "At least a little. I don't think you should go back to Hordak."
