Jacqui and Jax's situation in the main story itself is sad too: we learn that atop the suffering we know of, that both of them lost Vera a year before, making Jax even more sorrowful and regretful to the point that he chucks in with Kronika in hopes of preventing it all.As Jacqui begins to fade away, she tearfully says goodbye to her father and that she loves him. This results in Jax having a much better life, but at the cost of him never meeting Vera during his recovery. Jacqui's arcade ending, where she realizes all the suffering her father has been put through and alters time so that Jax never gets killed by Sindel.I will sacrifice my body and my mantle to re-sculpt the Sands so the Hourglass runs itself. Perhaps Mortals do not need a Lord of Time. Recognizing this is what corrupted his master, he sacrifices himself to the Hourglass, giving it the capacity to run autonomously and finally allowing him to die. As shown in his arcade ending, Geras is revealed to be a Punch-Clock Villain and Death Seeker who is tired of Kronika using him for her dirty work, and after finally getting sick of her, he realizes how hard it is to create a perfect timeline.One Scorpion openly admits that they should have taken Raiden up on his offer back in Mortal Kombat 9, to which the other Scorpion agrees. Scorpion vs Scorpion has both of them lamenting over the fact that their respective families are gone forever.But you don't betray your unit and you SURE AS HELL DON'T BETRAY YOUR FAMILY!

Present!Jax: YOU DON'T KNOW HOW BAD IT GETS! Losing your arms was just the beginning. (to Present!Jax) How 'bout we keep this between me, myself, and I? Never thought I'd stoop so low. Past!Jax: (gently pushing Jacqui aside) Hang back, kid.
