Spoiler Filled Synopsis: In 1260 B.C. in the land of Wakanda, the leader of the Dora Milaje, Akeje needs help from a former Dora, Noni on a solo mission.
A former high level Wakandan leader, calling himself The Lion, has left the secretive society armed with dozens of powerful Wakandan items. If these items fall into the wrong hands they could pose a danger to the world.
Noni accepts the mission and locates The Lion in Crete where he is capturing and enslaving the people to add them to what he believes is a utopian society.
Noni battles and confronts The Lion but she is blinded in the fight. He refuses to return to Wakanda and sets an explosion which sends all the Wakandan artifacts to the bottom of the Aegean Sea.
Noni returns to Wakanda and is offered a place back in the Dora Milaje. When Noni refuses, Akeje offers her membership of The War Dogs. A secret society with the purpose of keeping Wakandan tech out of the hands of the rest of the world for as long as it takes.
