## History

**Scar:** *In the name of the Great Kings of the Past, I, Prince Taka Of The Pride Lands , take you, Princess Zira of The Outlander Pride, to be my wife, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, until we are parted by death. This is my solemn vow.*

**Zira:** *I, Princess Zira of The Outlander Pride, take you, Prince Taka Of The Pride Lands, to be my husband, and I do promise and covenant, before the Great Kings of the Past, our cub and these witnesses, to be your loving and faithful wife in plenty and in want, in joy and in sorrow, in sickness and in health, as long as we both shall live."*

**Scar:** *I, Prince Taka Of The Pride Lands, devote myself to my daughter and to any future cubs I may have and I promise to always be able to provide for you. I, Taka, will always love you until death do us part.*

**Zira:** *even death will never do our hearts part.*

**Rafiki:** *This flower crown I give you, in token and pledge of your constant faith and abiding love.*

-Zira and Taka's vows during their wedding

Taka was the son of King Ahadi and Queen Uru of the Pride Lands, the younger brother of Mufasa and the older brother of Hasara while Zira was the daughter of Queen Bianka and King Kuzimu of the Outlands and the younger sister of Azola and Ujanja. During The Banishment of Azola, She took Zira in the night and fled to the Pride Lands. Azola was banished for having a rogue lover that resided in the Pride Lands and she wanted to save Zira from 'the same cruel fate' and Fled, begging King Ahadi and Queen Uru to see her rogue lover and to accept Her and Zira as members of their Pride, to which Ahadi and Uru smiled and accepted Azola and Zira as one of their own. While Zira was Playing With Sarabi, who seemed to become Zira's closest friend, Taka was taking a morning walk in the Pride Lands as he bumped into Zira and Sarabi who were play fighting which caused an argument between Taka and Zira as Sarabi ran to go find Ahadi, Uru and Azola to stop the argument between them.

After The Argument, Taka and Zira wouldn't talk to one another but Taka was encouraged to Apologise to Zira by Uru as Uru explained that the pride Zira came from saw an 'innocent bump' as a way of challenging someone for the highest power and for whom was the strongest so Zira could have thought that Taka was challenging her. Taka found a flower and began looking for Zira, who was resting in the sun. He gave Zira the flower and apologised if he made a bad introduction for himself and Zira soon forgave him, leading them to spend more and more time together to eventually become best friends.

Taka soon began to develop a crush on Zira and his mother was the first person to go to, to which he described his love for Zira. During Their Adolescence, Zira and Taka fell in love and soon conceived a cub without much thought of the situation at the time. Taka swore to protect his love and his cub although he was terribly afraid of his father's approval of their relationship and their offspring. Uru and Ahadi soon agreed, after long arguments, to betroth Taka and Zira and they both soon married but when Zira and Taka married Zira had already gave birth to their cub, whom they named Mrithi which meant 'heir'.

Taka adopted the name 'Scar' which everyone soon called him but Zira was the only one allowed to refer to him as 'Taka'. Scar became known to be very resentful of Mufasa as Scar believed he had a lower chance of becoming king and was resentful of the love Mufasa got that he didn't. Scar and Zira soon had Akiki, their second daughter, seasons before Sarabi and Mufasa had their heir, Simba. Scar was easily at war with Mufasa around the idea of Simba and Akiki and often placed them against each other. Zira loved her daughters but when Scar became very resentful of Mufasa and Simba, the latter for essentially ruining any chance of him legitimately becoming king, his resentment and anger towards Mufasa were strong enough that, he planned to usurp Mufasa's place on the throne by murdering him. Zira was afraid for her daughters safety but she was Scar's mate and she knew that Scar loved her and their daughters in his very peculiar way and she agreed that she'd remain loyal to him, no matter what he did to get what he wanted.

After Scar chased away Simba and Killed Mufasa, He became king and appointed Zira as his queen but Scar soon had a obsession for an heir as he already had two heiress and needed a strong male heir to take his place if anything ever happened to him or his two daughters if they were ever crowned. Zira eventually provided Scar with a male heir nine months into his ruling. They named their son, Nuka. To their disappointment, Nuka wasn't the healthiest cub but their two daughters came out perfectly strong and healthy which confused Scar as Nuka should have came out just the same as his older sisters but Zira and Scar promised to still love their three cubs the same and to train them to rule over the Pride Lands over Scar's blessing, ideas, rule and order.

Nunka was the second born son of Zira and Scar and was much stronger and healthier than his older brother. Nunka was close with Nala since he was a cub and they planned a rebellion to overthrow Scar but they were unsuccessful and was banished from the Pride Lands and both Zira and Scar began to get impatient, especially when Zira gave birth to another girl whom they named Shetani. At some point during Scar's kingship, they had another cub whom they named Adanna.

Hyenas were beginning to drive prey away and Zira needed food when she found out she was pregnant, once again. Zira's pregnancies cause stress on her as she wanted to provide a strong male heir but she gave birth two cubs. An heiress named Vitani and an heir named Ojore. Scar began to believe that something was wrong with him because he could only produce strong female heirs and could only provide weak or rebellious male heirs.

During A Fight, Scar argued with Zira that Nuka was too weak and blamed Zira for Nuka's condition and they no longer had their other son, Nunka, because of his rebellious nature. Although they had strong daughters, Scar didn't want an heiress and cursed Zira for only providing strong female daughters and the one strong male they had became warped by Mufasa's lionesses for Nunka being sheltered by Zira from Scar during his cubhood.

Zira infuriated, went behind Scar's back and mated with A rogue named Cerberus who came across the Pride Lands.

Zira gave birth to Kovu, who was strong and healthy and bared A strong resemblance to Scar enough to be called Scar's son, Scar presented Kovu to the Pride Lands to prove he could provide A male heir but Scar was soon killed and Simba, who was now king, Banished Zira and her Pride as well as her children, with Kovu being the last born. Zira still kept her promise to Scar and promised to raise Kovu to overthrow Simba and take Scar's place as King.
