Shang Tsung spent months turning you into the perfect weapon for the woman who had granted him power.

After months of rigorous tests and experiments, he was finally able to properly rewire your brain. No more were you the pure soul with a heart of gold, but an unfeeling, completely obedient warrior.

At the time it felt amazing. He loved that you listened to every little command, how you were always quick to defend him when necessary.

However, it backfired when he learned of the lies told by the woman who gave him power -- the woman who had promised him Outworld had been his Titan counterpart from another dimension. A powerful deity that wanted to destroy the dimension that Shang Tsung lived in.

Once the world as he knew it was safe, he couldn't help the immeasurable guilt he felt. He did everything he could to reverse you to the kind-hearted individual you were before, but to no avail.

Shang Tsung had given up with a sigh and moved his hands to cup around your cheeks.

"I'm sorry," he muttered, pressing his forehead against yours. "I am so sorry."
