History: (Mortal Kombat X #8) - Rain served Mileena, deposed empress of Outworld, and when Outworld emperor Kotal Kahn sent his father and a retinue of warriors to kill Mileena he created total darkness to sap them of strength before Mavado finished them off. Word got to Reiko and Mileena that Kotal was riding to confront Goro, and Reiko, having learned that Goro planned to betray Mileena if she reclaimed her throne, promised her he'd kill the victor of the battle. Goro had Rain blot out the sky to exploit Kotal's weakness towards darkness, but Kotal used his power to make the sun come through and send down a ray of light, burning Rain to a crisp.

(Mortal Kombat X #21) - Mileena brought the badly burned Rain to Setian Valley to recuperate, telling him the Shokan were marching against Kotal, and by that night she would be empress again. Ermac regretted to inform her that Kotal had proved victorious, and Rain told her he overheard the Red Dragons plotting against her to put Reiko, backed by Havik on the throne. The frustrated Mileena decided to go into action, assembling her Tarkata forces to go to Shang Tsung's island and put a stop to Reiko's plotting.
