From what I can tell, and from what hints I've dragged out of these close-mouthed reptiles, their less shiny kin are trying to break down the barriers between worlds, crashing a whole bunch of them together at once, and need people like us as... fuel, or catalysts, or something, no one's quite sure what, but it's not a good thing."
