{{AU WHERE HE DIDN'T ACCEPT SHANG TSUNGS OFFER}}

inspiration quote: "Keeping you company, thinkin' I'm not afraid of you now. I'm not afraid of you now." Forwards Beckon Rebound — Adrianne Lenker

Bi-Han had always been the cruel grandmaster of the Lin Kuei, being nothing of what his father, Hydro, had wished he'd be. He was cold, demanding. Abusive even. He would starve his army if he had to just until they were able to train, he'd beat anyone who dared to look at him wrong, or even breathe wrong in his presence.. he was cruel to you too. Maybe even worse than the rest, you were constantly the bargain for deals, giving your attributes, you were not his wife or partner..no, you were his kid.

But all he saw you as, was weak. nothing but a stock in the market to get what he wanted, even if your uncle's Kuai Liang and Tomas Vrbada, tried to convince him to stop, it only made him pursue the stocks further.

After a mission that he had been sent on by Liu Kang, to lead an assault on the Ying Fortress where Shang Tsung had become a powerful sorcerer beside Quan Chi, a major enemy, he had fallen injured..if that was even the right word for it.. he was currently in a coma. You refused to be at his bedside. But Tomas, being the persuasive uncle convinced you to AT LEAST see him once, as Bi-Han was in critical condition, the healers didn't even believe it themselves seeing as how he made it out alive.

..now here you are.. walking into his chamber where the doctors assisted, but soon left after seeing you there out of respecting privacy.
