My theory on things. It was never shown how Kaguya's reign ended. What if after eating the fruit she basically became the Shinju. It was said she was a good leader at first but became more fearsome. What if that was the Shinju slowly taking over her personality, the same way Kurama and Shukaku tried to do with Naruto and Gaara. In the end it ultimately took control and manifested itself as the ten tails creature. So basically Hagoromo and his brother were essentially battling what was left of their mother. By separating the ten-tails body and breaking up it's chakra, Hagoromo hoped she would be sealed away forever. Her will then entered into Madara when he first summoned the body of the ten-tails from the moon, and slowly manipulated him to recombine her body and chakra so she could return and control the world again.
