Welcome back to the Mortal Kombat Intros. Today, since we covered Shao Kahn last week, the only character that makes sense to cover now is this one. The character everybody claims Mortal Kombat 11 ruined: Sindel. But before we get into the intros, I want to give my take on this character after thinking it over between Mortal Kombat stories, particularly her ending. I look at all of those as non-canon. Every source I use lists them as non-canon. So I don't take them too seriously. And since apparently the backstory portion of her ending, the part where she kills Jerrod, is canon, it explains something to me: the reason Quan Chi killed Sindel prior to MK9. She grew to regret choosing to aid Shao Kahn after seeing what he did to Edenia, putting Quan Chi's plans in jeopardy. And besides, a lot of her negative aspects in personality are explained by her being a Revenant by default, that just seems to amplify negativity. Anyways, my perspectives aside, let's get into these intros.
Sindel: Kneel before your empress.
Spyro: My home is beyond your rule, Sindel.
Sindle: For now, but not for long.
Spyro: You used to be a kind and respected ruler! What happened to you?!
Sindel: It is better to be feared than to be respected.
Spyro: Your Machiavellian madness ends today!
Sindel: Is it true? You can restore my soul?
Spyro: It's possible, but the power required could rip the realms apart.
Sindel: Your restraint is wise.
Spyro: So did Quan Chi kill you or was it a suicide?
Sindel: He killed me alright, then cast the ward on Earthrealm himself
Spyro: A manipulator to the end, that one.
Sindel: Have you ever been dominated?
Spyro: That privilege is Cynder's alone.
Sindel: You will submit, dragon!
Spyro: Have you no regret for Jerrod's murder?!
Sindel: I do. That's why Quan Chi made my death look like a suicide.
Spyro: At least you do know regret.
Sindel: You have Jerrod's heart.
Spyro: While you mean an insult, I take that as a compliment.
Sindel: Then you'll die just as easily.
Spyro: You deceived all of Edenia!
Sindel: Edenia was mine to do with as I pleased.
Spyro: No longer.
Sindel: Ever lie with an Edenian?
Spyro: There's only one for me. And you're not it.
Sindel: For that, I will have you broken.
Spyro: This reign of deception ends here, Sindel.
Sindel: The game only ends when I say so.
Spyro: You hold no sway here.
