MKM:SZ says Sub-Zero stole Shinnok's amulet from the Temple of the Elements. Then Sub-Zero had to go back and steal it from Shinnok and return it to Raiden.

MK4 says Quan Chi made a fake one and gave it to Shinnok while he kept the original one. So that makes two fakes: one for Raiden and one for Shinnok.

MKD says Shujinko found the amulet in the Netherealm and gave it to Shinnok...

So is it canon now that Quan Chi never gave Shinnok his fake amulet?

If Shinnok had a fake amulet all this time, how was he able to be powerful in MKM:SZ and escape the Netherealm in MK4?

According to MKD/MKA, Onaga took the amulet from Quan Chi after Raiden destroyed himself... yet Quan Chi and Shang Tsung some how survive the blast. Shinnok himself says that Onaga has what he needs to shape the realms as he sees fit. So that means he had ALL Kamidogu and was to become unstoppable.

If that's the case, how was he stopped? He was supposed to have complete control of his UNDEFEATABLE army if he had the amulet. ANOTHER damn fake Amulet?

So who has control of the amulet after Onaga was transported into the Netherealm because of Nightwolf?

After Sub-Zero got the Amulet in Mythologies, Quan Chi took it and made a duplicate...which he gave to Shinnok. The duplicate is what Sub-Zero took back and returned to Raiden...while Quan Chi kept the original in secret.
One duplicate, one real Amulet.

The side missions in Konquest are nonsense and not considered canon. That business with the Amulet....Stryker hanging out in Seido....fetching knives for Rain then leading him into Jade's ambush...etc.
Don't think too much of it.

The how's and why's of MK4 are kind of sketchy...save for Shinnok invaded Edenia the Netherealm with Tanya's help and Quan Chi had the real one the whole time and was just waiting for the right time to make his move with it...which didn't happen because Scorpion ended up dragging him to hell.

According to Raiden's Armageddon bio...they didn't survive the blast. They didn't expain how Quan Chi came back, though.

Onaga had all the Kamidogu pieces, but he didn't yet know how to fuse them together and activate them. That's why he invaded Edenia in Deception because the secrets to working to Kamidogu were there. He was stopped by Shujinko before he could find it.

The Undefeatable Army was apparantly wiped out by Raiden's explosion. Anti-climactic as that may be....

We didn't find out what became of the Amulet following Onaga's defeat. Presumably, Quan Chi got it again because he's wearing it on his belt in Armageddon...but, again, they didn't explain.
