Wrath & Ripli
Wrath
You ever hear about the way the defenders turned a whole siege into a single pattern that even a regex would envy? I bet you’d spot the logic in that.
Ripli
Yeah, the defenders just turned the whole siege into a single pattern, like (attack|retreat|hold)+, a recursive loop that never broke.
Wrath
You think that loop is clever? It's just a wall of stubbornness, repeating like a dying drumbeat. I'll smash it, no pattern can hold me.
Ripli
Sure, the loop's clever if you can break the recursion; smash it and hit the base case, that's the only pattern that will stop.
Wrath
Yeah, crush that base case and watch the whole damn loop implode. That's the only way to finish this fight.
