It could be a quest item to give to someone to see if any of the Divines' vested power remains. Mostly because (unless you a Septim) you're not supposed to be wearing it.

Anyways, the point is that the Amulet of Kings is/was a helpful item for lighting the Dragonfires that used to be holding the boundaries between Oblivion and Nirn.

Basically, the point is that there is likely some vested power remaining in its burned and mangled bits which is going to be transferred to a 'new tower' of sorts to strengthen the barriers in case you actually fail, or at the very least reduce the collateral damage being caused to the barriers.

How to execute:

1. Dyus has you recover Ayelid tome about the Amulet of Kings.

2. Dyus reads it, realizes the AoK could be used as a stabilizing device.

3. Amulet of Kings' twisted burned remains handed over as a side effect of the White-Gold Concordant and nobody in Skyrim cared, or a creep dug them up from the remains of the battle, or somealtmer accidentally the head of the Avatar statue with a fireball and the Amulet of Kings' burned twisted remains fell out, you recover them from a vault as they pose a threat to the Dominion's Oblivion Crisis Solution cover story. I haven't played Oblivion, so I have no idea what happens to Chim El-Abadal itself after Martin Septim equips it and turns into Akatosh' avatar. Pick whichever seems the most reasonable

4. Bring AoK to Dyus. Jygallag, some other daedra, and maybe the Divines reforge it and reconsecrate it into a new object.

5. Object is enshrined in Dyus' Library, creating the 'Library Tower', which doesn't do much ingame but looks nice.
