They had come to understand that without someone as strategically adept as Rain, he could potentially recover and regroup within a matter of days and destroy them. They couldn't afford to make any more reckless moves that might play into Rain's hands.

They realized that they needed to think more deeply about their actions, as any rash moves could lead to catastrophic consequences. With the threat of Rain's tactical cunning hanging over them, they understood the importance of staying vigilant and not underestimating their adversary.
