4	-----
5	!!This fanfic provides examples of:
6	* AlternateUniverseFic: Prior to Mufasa's death, both Mufasa and Scar are captured by humans and sent to a zoo.
7	* DisappearedDad: After his youngest cub Mheetu died, Scar distanced himself from his daughter Nala. He doesn't even like to think of her as his daughter.
8	* HollywoodAtheist: Most animals believe that [[StarsAreSouls you become a star upon dying]]. Scar is one of the few exceptions. The [[OutlivingOnesOffspring death of his son]] turned him bitter and atheistic. He believes that [[CessationOfExistence when you die, that's it]].
9	* KissingCousins: Scar is Nala's father, making Simba and Nala first cousins. The two are [[ArrangedMarriage betrothed]] to one another.
10	* MatingSeasonMayhem: The zookeepers introduce a female in heat to Mufasa and Scar in hopes that they'll have cubs. This annoys Mufasa because he has difficulties staying faithful to his mate Sarabi, who is still back home in Africa.
11	* OhMyGods: The characters use the Great Kings in this manner.
12	-->'''Mufasa''': What, in the name of the Great Kings, happened?
13	* RelatedInTheAdaptation: Scar is Nala and Mheetu's father.
14	* RoyalInbreeding: Nala and Simba are royal first cousins who are in an ArrangedMarriage.
15	* SapientEatSapient:
16	** After escaping their enclosure, Scar and Mufasa head over to the zebra exhibit first to eat a member of the group who insulted them behind their backs previously. Later, recapping the night's events, the zoo staff list several other animals eaten, including a flock of ducks.
17	** Angry at being lied to, Mufasa barely misses biting Moses in half.
18	** Lalia is a captive-bred lion who has never hunted before. One day, the zookeepers put a live sheep into her enclosure. Laila reluctantly attacks the sheep. She feels bad about killing it and almost lets it go, but she kills it after it calls her a "mockery of a feline". She still feels bad afterwards.
19	* ScavengersAreScum: Scar hates being lowered to the point where he eats carrion (that is, the meat that humans give them). He thinks that scavenging is beneath him.
20	* SonOfAnApe: Scar derides humans as "hairless monkeys".
21	* StarsAreSouls: Most animals believe that you become a star upon dying.
