This is plus --, the causative suffix: to make clear. Once you see that, the whole neighbourhood opens up. with -- is the mirror image, to become clear, which is what a mystery does at the end of a story. o is an explanation and e means by way of explanation. The person you explain to takes ; the thing explained is the plain object. English speakers reach for "explain me" now and then, which in Esperanto would mean explaining the person, and that is a different service entirely.
