Nekros

This town was founded by sorcerers as an oasis from the wastelands. It is only here that magic users are unaffected by the drain of the Netherrealm.
--Female Demon in MK: DeceptionNekros is an ancient city in the Netherrealm featured in Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-Zero. and later featured in the Konquest mode of Mortal Kombat: Deception. This land is filled with a few large pagoda-like towers and small spiked houses and there is also a diabolical slaughterhouse found within this dark city. The city is modeled after the fallen Elder God Shinnok's view of some of the cities of Earthrealm, a world he has long sought to conquer.
It was built by sorcerers as a source of protection against not only the hostile evil environment which drains life energies from the living, but also against the bloodthirsty Onis and the putrid zombies whom they all considered as primitive and savage. Also within the city is an infamous festival called the Festival of Torture, which is a celebration held by the wicked citizens of the Netherrealm that consists of burning dead bodies while others watch the activity in delight.

Nekros was the main city that teen Shujinko traversed thru in order to find the realm's Kamidogu. Damashi warned it's home to the most darkest of souls and should take caution. While there, he didn't meet up with Hanzo nor Quan, contrary to the game, though he did help Shinnok retrieve his amulet, even though it was proven suspicious. Kung Lao's spirit followed him until he found it, and due to deja vu with the Brotherhood of Shadow, it did tempt him a couple of times. It did feel like days, but it had proven to be years during both expeditions when Shujinko found the relic, and then retained his taint to travel thru realms, although Lao wasn't around the second time.
