...Sabra la Tau is a dying world inhabited by dying gods. The Judges use the games we play to fuel themselves and, when a group of blanks has been entirely or mostly devoured by the Pillar, they summon a new group. But we--that is, this current group of blanks--are working on ways to break the cycle, with help from some Judges who are similarly dissatisfied with Sabra la Tau's current existence. From Persephone's warning, it seems that our efforts to break the cycle, free all the souls in the Pillar, and likely kill most of the Judges has begun to attract undue attention from Judges who would not want us to succeed.
