Krakatoa & Xiao
Xiao
Have you ever noticed how the structure of a myth can feel like a repeating algorithm—each motif appears, loops back, and transforms, almost like a code hidden in folklore?
Krakatoa
Yeah, I’ve seen it. Myths are like loops—everytime a motif comes up, it spins back, tweaks itself, and keeps the story moving. It’s almost as if the gods are running some ancient program in our heads.
Xiao
You could call them recursive functions—every time a theme returns, it adds a new layer, like a nested if‑else in a mythic script.
