I have this reoccurring nightmare where i'm off planet with one of the elders, looking down on the earth and he explains that they just shake the world like a snow globe and reset civilization if they ever lose control or don't like the path they're heading down. He explains that's why the earth's tilted on it's axis… and shows me the oceans sloshing over the land in some immense flood.
Says they've done it before and will do it again.
