Summary
Jack killed Aku.
He was supposed to win.
He thought he saved the world.He thought he could undo everything.
Now, thrust back into a future where Aku somehow still reigns, Jack faces a world that remembers nothing. His old enemies live again. His allies are too far gone. And the Daughters of Aku, reborn into fates even crueler than before, are scattered across a world that worships their father, who appears to be actively making the world a better place.
One thinks she’s not just five steps ahead of him, but of everyone else.
One, the former timeless princess, is sadly, once again her father’s most loyal disciple.
One hides beneath wrathful storms that never fade.
One should be dead, but she isn't.
One gambled with the concept of empathy and lost her memories.
One pretends to destroy, but secretly rebuilds, hoping her efforts will not draw the watchful eye of her father.
One isolates herself in the frozen wilderness, her devotion to her father unwavering despite the crushing solitude.
Jack had fought Aku before.This, though?
This is something far worse.
