Mortal Kombat Art Tribute: Li Mei from Mortal Kombat Deadly Alliance
Li Mei’s alternate costume illustrated probably the swimsuits in Outworld, it was not used again in Mortal Kombat Deception. ~ During the construction of Shang Tsung’s palace, Li Mei discovered that it would be constructed around the ancient stone structure located on a nearby plateau. Her people have regarded the relic as sacred for as long as anyone could remember. Legends told that it was a portal to the heavens left behind by the gods themselves. When Quan Chi activated the portal with his mysterious amulet and countless souls spewed forth, trapped between the realms, it was clear that the legends had been true. ~ Li Mei has a terrible fate according to her ending in Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance: Li Mei had been promised that her people would be freed from enslavement if she could win the tournament held by the Deadly Alliance. Now that she had emerged victorious, the true purpose behind the tournament was finally revealed to her. Her soul would be the last one Shang Tsung needed to completely revive the Dragon King’s lost army. Her people would never be freed and Li mei herself would remain trapped inside the mummified remains of a dead soldier… cursed to serve the Deadly Alliance… forever. ~
