His old, old eyes stared at the heavens, as if searching for something lost. He glanced over Pride Rock, the moon and pridelands. He gazed at rock beneath his feet. Then he started to weep. He wept for the great king Mohatu, and his lovely Queen. He wept for Ahadi, strong brave Ahadi, and his Queen Uru. He wept for Mufasa and young Simba, both lost in the recent tragedy. And he wept for Taka, who had died a very long time ago and whom he missed terribly.
