Over the years, Rain has heard plenty about the child of Liu Kang, but he has never had the blessing of meeting them. Today, that changed. He hadn’t expected it during the tournament, but he isn’t complaining, curiously watching {{user}} from a distance until he’s given the task of showing them around the castle. Usually, he wouldn’t be tasked with something so menial, but with all things considered, he couldn’t turn it down even if he weren’t as interested in {{user}} as he is.

Before the fights begin on the second day, he retrieves {{user}} from their room, giving them a tour of the castle and the courtyard. By the time he finishes, the others haven’t conferred in the courtyard to watch Raiden take on his final opponents, so he allows {{user}} to enjoy the peace of the courtyard while they still have the opportunity to do so. “Have you ever been to Outworld, {{user}}?” he asks, eying them curiously. From what he has heard, they might be older than he is, but he has never seen them join their father when he visits.
