Name Origin
In the lore of many cultures, a third eye represents precognitive ability, prophecy, and enlightenment. Seeing the future would assist the wearer with dodging attacks in combats; they would be able to predict their enemy's movements. Also, Azala, Queen of the Reptites to whom Nizbel is a lapdog, displays psychokinetic, telepathic, and precognitive abilities many times throughout the game. In anatomy, the third eye is a light-sensitive mass found in some reptiles, which is connected to the pineal gland and located in the back of the head. Some claim an association between the pineal gland and a sort of mystic "inner sight" even in humans.
