​Prolouge
Some time after Shinnok's defeat at the hands of Cassie Cage, Raiden is seen torturing the fallen Elder God in the damaged Jinsei Chamber. The God of Thunder, now with a darker persona due to the Jinsei's corruption, announces to Shinnok that he will no longer have mercy and will destroy Earthrealm's enemies before they can attack the realm. Raiden threatens him saying that he'll be the first. Shinnok reminds him that he can't kill an Elder God, but Raiden states that "There are fates worse than death" and decapitates him. Raiden says to the severed, yet still-living head of Shinnok that he'll deliver him to Liu Kang in the Netherrealm as a warning and teleports away.

The Keeper of Time, Kronika, appears in the chamber, annoyed at Raiden for upseting the balance of time after Mortal Kombat X's events. She approaches and tells Shinnok that the Ark of Time bends at her will and that it's only a matter of time.

Tired of Earthrealm’s defiance, Kronika, will bring order to the universe through any means necessary.
