My theory based on what we know:

1)    The god of darkness created the grimm.

2)    Magic was a gift given to humanity by the god of darkness.

3)    The maidens came from magic.

4)    Silver eyed warrior powers counter both grimm and maiden powers.

Conclusion: The silver eyed warrior powers are just anti god of darkness powers and could potentially be used against Salem directly (and Oz if need be).

As for Jinn's answer to Ozma's question earlier in the volume; remember the phrasing of the question: "How do *I* destroy Salem?" and her answer was "*YOU* can't." As in (Ozama) can't. This could be a Lord of the Rings "No man can kill me" "I am no man (is a woman)" situation. Genies are known for finding loopholes in peoples wording after all.

Salem is also adamant about killing all the silver eyed warriors. While it could be argued that it's because they have these "anti-grimm" powers, we saw in this episode that they seem to only be used as a last resort and aren't an "all the time" thing. Even "The Grimm Reaper", one of the most legendary SEWs prefered to kill grimm the old fashioed way instead of using her powers.

In the context of writing the story, this would also make perfect sense as to why she's the main character. Their last hope for stopping Salem is someone with these powers, and she's the only one left.
