Epilogue: Scorpion
Appalled and disgusted upon learning of Esdeath's atrocious acts of brutality and slaughter, Hanzo Hasashi vowed that he would personally end the General's cycle of torment.
After manifesting his wraith persona, Scorpion then journeyed towards the Imperial Capital, and battled all sorts of warriors, assassins, and soldiers along his way in search of his quarry.
The search didn't take long, for every Jaeger, Rakshasa Demon, and Wild Hunt member the Shirai Ryu defeated, drew the Jaegers' leader's attention, and a confrontation quickly ensued.
With complete mastery over the fires of the Netherrealm, and all the hate and fury of Esdeath's victims added to his own, Scorpion's flames grew powerful enough to overwhelm Esdeath's ice. The General soon came to realize that, as her Trump Cards including time-stopping Mahapadma, hordes of Ice Cavalry, and climate changing Ice Storm couldn't prevent an Inferno powered chain-kunai from finding its mark.
"Get Over Here!" was the last Esdeath ever heard, before feeling the sharp searing bite of a spear penetrating into her temple.
With Esdeath's skewered head pinned to a stone pillar, the display soon became a testament to Scorpion's desire for vengeance as he continued his campaign to destroy those who held Esdeath's leash.
With the Empire's strongest defenders vanquished, and the Revolutionary Army's ranks bolstered by the Shirai Ryu clan, Prime Minister Honest grew desperate as the Imperial Capital prepared for a siege. With one last card to play, Honest led his young Emperor to a certain chamber, hoping to turn his unwitting pawn into his weapon of last resort.
The door into the chamber opened, and the young Emperor was the first to step through. But, before Honest could join him, a sudden painful sensation erupted from his chest. The Prime Minister only had enough time to look down, and see the razor sharp blade of a kunai protruding from his torso. He was then yanked off his feet and dragged into the shadows behind him.
The young Emperor can only watch in horror, as a man in yellow garb appeared behind Prime Minister Honest. "To Hell With You!" was all the man said, before conjuring a fiery portal, and kicking a wounded Honest through it.
Eventually, the Empire's current regime fell, and peace followed under the reign of a new government.
In time, Scorpion's deeds and accomplishments faded into legend, his memory living on as stories parents would tell their misbehaving children, or as ballads and dramas performed by minstrels and acting troupes at any tavern or inn. Of a vengeful specter, who would seek out all those who committed wrong onto others, and punish them for their crimes. Many a brigand or bandit would scoff at these tellings, only for them to disappear one day with all traces of their existence gone and wiped away.
