Building on this from earlier:
Nidhogg's eyes being used in this manner to power Omega is what pulls Shinryu in to oppose him. He's not about to let this madman use his deceased brother's power in this manner after all (going on the assumption that if Shinryu is in XIV and that he'd be of the First Brood of course)
