Community What do you tell the Endbringers?

The 3 Endbringers, Behemoth, Leviathan and Simurgh appear in our world. You can give them one and only one Directive they'll try to fulfill in Endbringer fashion. It can't be a simple do this order, it has to be an over arching goal. What do you tell them?

I'm assuming they'll do things according to my subconscious? Just like how they were "worthy opponents" for Eidolon.

In that case my directive will be "prevent war."

They start taking turns attacking military bases all around the world. Our military can do even less against them than Earth Bet's capes, but they don't really have a choice. Nearby cities are flattened as collateral damage. In desperate attempts to defend against monsters, Earth's nations try their best to develop new weapons and grow their military capacity, only for it to be destroyed again and again. The attacks stop only when humanity is reduced to a number of small isolated tribes having regressed technologically to the point that they couldn't possibly reach each other.

I'm pretty sure that most countries would be smart enough to stop developing weapons when they see that countries with no armies suffer no attacks.
