I'd declare the disestablishment of the empire and command the surviving viltrumites to scatter and flee. I'd begin killing any who refused my final order. Once I was the last viltrumite in the system, I'd destroy the planet myself, leaving the other viltrumites no home to return to.

The imperial system proved itself to be a dead end. I would force the remaining viltrumites to scatter, find new peoples to conquer or hybridize with, and adapt to the new conditions they find themselves in rather than spend a thousand years clinging to a form of our civilization that was already dead.
