Here is the pattern I just added some triangles over the areas so they stand out more.

Rotate counter clockwise to right.
Side 2

Rotate one more time counter clockwise to the right.

I made the last one larger because of that numeral looking thing at the top. I tried to trace it best I could. If we say that the circular landing pad at the top is north, then all the towers start with side one and its facing west on each tower. Then it rotates counter clockwise to South East and then North East. Hope it helps
Kind of in the same ballpark as what's on two sides of the relic on the upper portion alongside the glowy crystal thing except the relic's pattern matches the geometry of the output on the obelisk. Hmmm, interesting. These guys really like their triangles. I feel bad for the alien kid that fails geometry in that race!
