Maybe it was meant to be the dragonbron's. Like, it was created in hopes the dragonborn would change sides to Alduin's for power like Miraak (minus the turning against part). But Alduin got mad about the DB killing his minions and decided to go on without him. He had been planning on calling back his minions and bringing their masks and opening the shrine. But he got mad and decided not to.
