The Lion King: into the Badlands

It has been five years since Simba ascended the throne of Glory King. After the war, the grassland was once again lush and peaceful, and all things followed the circle of life. But a rare severe drought suddenly swept across the southern land. The grass and trees in the wilderness were scorched, water sources were cut off, and prey disappeared. The displaced wilderness lions were in dire straits. Scar was defeated and fell years ago, but the hatred scam he planted himself has never dissipated. Ambition and suffering are intertwined. The lion of the wilderness, Lorca, gathers all the exiled remnants and blames Simba's rule for the poverty and suffering of the tribe for generations. He firmly believes that the Glory Kingdom monopolizes fertile soil and vitality. In the name of revenge and survival, he leads the desperate wilderness lions north to the border, threatening to overthrow Simba and regain the kingship of the grasslands. The haze of war is approaching the north-south border, and peace is on the verge of being shattered. Simba, who has long lost his youthful recklessness, is no longer a lion returning just for revenge, but a king with the entire land on his shoulders. He knew that the claws could end the fighting, but they could not heal the estrangement between generations. Accompanied by Nana, Timon, Pengpeng and Zazu, Simba rushed to the dangerous wasteland. Under the guidance of Rafiqi, he uncovered a centuries-old secret: the northern and southern lions were originally from the same source and symbiotic, and the ancient oath maintained the balance of the grassland. It was Scar who deliberately tore the alliance and tampered with history, making the two groups enemies for generations. In order to end the endless hatred and save all living beings, Simba gave up the military conquest and restarted the ancient oath of the wilderness with the mind of a king. He transcended antagonisms, sewed up rifts, used tolerance and perseverance to resolve century-old grievances, revitalized the depleted wasteland, brought the separated ethnic groups back to their origins, and truly protected the perfection of the circle of life and the eternal tranquility of the grassland.
