It was a peaceful day in the Pridelands.
Simba was spending time with his grandparents inside the den.
They were settled down amongst the moss.
"When will Dad be king?" Simba asked.
Ahadi and Uru exchanged a glance.
"We need to tell him." Uru said quietly.
"Tell me what?" Simba asked.
Ahadi cleared his throat.
"Simba, I've decided to abdicate in favor of your father." Ahadi said.
"What does that mean?" Simba asked.
"It means I won't be the King of the Pridelands anymore." Ahadi explained patiently.
Simba moved forward, and nestled against Ahadi's pelt.
"Will you still be my grandfather?" he asked.
Ahadi chuckled.
"I'll always be your grandfather, and I'll always love you." he purred.
"I love you, Yeh-Yeh." Simba said.
Uru bent her head, and rubbed her muzzle against Simba's cheek.
"Tell him why you're abdicating, Ahadi." Uru said gently.
Ahadi rubbed a paw against Simba's cheek.
"Simba, I'm abdicating for your sake. I want to spend more time with you." he told him.
"Really?" Simba asked.
Ahadi nodded.

The next morning, Ahadi stood with Rafiki, Zazu, and Mufasa outside the entrance to the den.
Sarabi, Shari, Uru, and Simba were behind them.
The lionesses were assembled inside the den.
"Where's Uncle Scar?" Simba asked.
Uru and Sarabi exchanged a glance.
"He's on a hunt." Shari said quickly.
Rafiki stepped forward.
"King Ahadi wishes to to deliver a proclamation." he said.
He stepped aside, as Ahadi moved forward.
Ahadi's gaze swept across the assembled animals.
"I am pleased and proud to announce my intention to abdicate in favor of my eldest son." he said loudly.
As the animals cheered, Mufasa, Sarabi, and Simba stepped forward.
Rafiki cleared his throat.
"The coronation of Prince Mufasa and Princess Sarabi shall take place very soon." Rafiki said.
Ahadi curled his tail around Simba's shoulders.
"I look forward to helping raise Prince Simba." he said.
