Board Thread:Mortal Kombat (Alternate Timeline)/@comment-4708902-20160414004534

Every MK fan knows that Edenia was the most respected realm in the Mortal Kombat universe until it lost 10 Mortal Kombat tournaments and was invaded by Shao Kahn. In the Original Timeline, Edenia was freed from Outworld after Shao Kahn's defeat in MK3. But in the current, Kotal Kahn refuses to relinquish Edenia or any other realm Shao Kahn has conquered saying "A united Outworld is better for everyone."

Kotal Kah is obvouisly not interested in conquering and seems content with just ruling Outworld and it's client realms. So this may have created some morally conflicting issues. Shao Kahn was a ruthless tyrant but Kotal Kahn's reign is more benevolent(Though you can still face brutal punishment for law breaking) so is Edenia better or worse under Outworld rule in the current timeline? Would Edenian independence be beneficial for story purposes or nots?

What do you think? Should Edenia become independent or not? If yes how so? If not why not?
