Looks you are starting from removable USB drive. Good idea! I am not familiar with loop-aes in connection with software suspend/hibernate but as you fail to reach the point where the pass phrase is asked I come to remember difficulties I had...
Could you verify that your two sata drives are assigned as /dev/sda and sdb? How about the USB drive? The usb part of the kernel posts plenty of messages even *before* a partition is mounted. Since your setup fails to mount /dev/sdc it might be a timing problem. I am uncertain but I suggest you increase the delay for usb devices in the built-intrd.sh and make up a new initial ramdisk
INITIALDELAY=0 -> 3 to 10
This aims to mount /dev/sdc as /lib so that the passphrase will be asked. Delay of USB devices is hardware specific and needs some tweaks. Kernel should post messages about manufacturer/capacity of the medium *before* it gets mounted.
Give it a try! It may also be an issue of this software suspend which I am not familiar with. But anyway, you have to make the kernel mount this USB drive.
Best regards,
Peter
