There had been a time when a trio was thought to be a poor number, for one would always be left behind. Kain was willing to admit that he, too, had fallen into that logic trap once upon a time, and Cecil, Rosa, and himself had suffered a world of pain because of it. Yes, there were things designed for two people alone, but there were many things made better with three. It may have taken the dragoon seventeen years to rid himself of his doubts and another few months of struggles besides, but he would never again question his place. Cecil and Rosa may be king and queen, but the throne would be vulnerable without the constant vigilance of the royal guard. They really did work better as three than just with any combination of two. So it didn't matter that others thought a trio would always end up in ruins, because some people simply didn't see how three was so much better than two.
