Plot Elements

 * Fire God Liu Kang and Raiden attempt to utilize Kronika's Hourglass to restore history, but are interrupted by Shang Tsung, Fujin, and Nightwolf, who were all imprisoned in a timeless void by Kronika for refusing to join her.
 * Shang Tsung elaborates that, due to the destruction of the Crown of Souls when Liu Kang defeated Kronika, the Hourglass cannot be used to change history without destroying it. He convinces Liu Kang to send him, Fujin, and Nightwolf back in time to retrieve the Crown of Souls before Cetrion does. Despite Raiden's suspicions of Shang Tsung, Liu Kang agrees and sends the trio back, staying behind to protect the Hourglass.
 * Shang Tsung, Fujin, and Nightwolf are transported to the Koliseum just as Kitana confronted Shao Kahn. They attempt to flee undetected, but news spreads of their arrival, prompting Kronika to retaliate.
 * To face Cetrion on his island, Shang Tsung determines their best option is to resurrect Sindel, so they head to the Netherrealm and capture her revenant.
 * Returning to Outworld, Shang Tsung uses Sheeva's blood debt to Sindel to gain access to the Soul Chamber and restore Sindel despite fierce resistance from Kitana, Jade, Kotal, Black, and Baraka.
 * Sindel accompanies Shang Tsung and the others to his island, where Fujin defeats Kronika's forces and convinces present-day Jax to defect early while Sindel defeats Cetrion and helps the group capture the Crown.
 * Fujin and Shang Tsung travel to the Fire Garden to convince Raiden of Shang Tsung's alliance. When Kronika attempts to intervene, Raiden, Fujin, and Shang Tsung fend her off, though she reveals the sorcerer was the one who designed the Crown.
 * As the offensive on Kronika's Keep is about to commence, Shang Tsung signals Sindel to heal Shao Kahn. The pair then betray and defeat Sheeva, gaining control of her army before destroying Geras, imprisoning the Cage family, defeating Kitana, Liu Kang, and Jade, throwing Kung Lao into the Sea of Blood, and killing Kotal.
 * It is revealed that Sindel was never brainwashed and had willingly married Shao Kahn after he conquered her realm by killing her former husband and Kitana's biological father.
 * While Fujin spearheads the offensive on Kronika's Keep, Raiden discovers Shang Tsung's plot and Sindel's betrayal while fighting revenant Liu Kang when the latter receives injuries from his past self.
 * Raiden arrives too late to stop Shang Tsung from tricking Fujin into giving him the Crown. The sorcerer gains Kronika's full power, revealing he had planned everything after Kronika imprisoned him. He overpowers and drains Raiden and Fujin's souls before using Sindel and Shao Kahn to reach the Hourglass.
 * Once Kronika's remaining revenants are killed, Shang Tsung betrays Sindel and Shao Kahn and takes their souls as well before defeating and erasing Kronika from existence, gaining the last of her power. As he starts approaching the Hourglass to mold his New Era, Fire God Liu Kang appears, revealing he was aware of Shang Tsung's intentions and, knowing he was the only one strong enough to defeat Kronika, allowed Shang Tsung to stay alive to protect the Crown.
 * Liu Kang defeats and erases Shang Tsung from existence and recovers the Crown, with which he gains control over the Hourglass. Once he forges his own New Era, he visits the Shaolin temple to train his and Kung Lao's ancestor, the Great Kung Lao, to become his champion in Mortal Kombat.
