Mufasa tells him that, as king, there was one thing he was most proud of: Having Simba as his son. Mufasa tells him that he must take his place in the circle of life, and he must remember that he is the one true king, but Simba replies that he can’t do it because he doesn’t know how to be like him. Simba then hears his father’s voice calling out his name from a storm cloud overhead. This causes Simba’s reflection to transform into Mufasa, and Rafiki explains that Mufasa is alive – in him. Simba says that he doesn’t see his father, but Rafiki tells him to look closer before disturbing the water with his hand. Rafiki brings him to a stop once they reach the edge of a small lake, then has him look down on the water’s surface to show him his own reflection. He then tells the curious Simba that his father is alive, and he can take him to him, then leads him on a chase through the jungle. Rafiki questions him about who he is, and when Simba replies that he is nobody, Rafiki tells him that he knows he is Mufasa’s son. That night, Simba walks through the jungle mumbling to himself over what he and Nala talked about until he crosses paths with Rafiki. Disappointed, Nala gives up on Simba and leaves to return to the Pride Lands. She tells him that Scar has decimated the Pride Lands, and though she again stresses that he needs to return and challenge Scar for the kingship, he adamantly refuses to do so, never once telling her that he is in exile due to his (unfounded) belief that he accidentally killed Mufasa and feels too guilty about it to go back and face everyone. Simba replies that they’re fine and nobody needs him, and that Scar is the king. Later, she asks him why he has never come home, and adds that the pride really needed him. While doing so, they discover that they have romantic feelings for one another. Simba tells her that this jungle is his home and asks her to stay, and though she replies that she can’t, he shows her around anyway. Believing she has come here to live, Simba tells her that she is going to love it here, but Nala tells him that they need to go back to the Pride Lands so he can take his rightful place as king, saying that Scar has taken over with the hyenas. However, he recognizes her after she pins him like how she did when they were cubs, and after he tells her who he is, they have a happy reunion. Just as she has him cornered, Simba leaps in and fights her, not knowing who she is. Nala makes her way to the jungle that Simba, Timon and Pumbaa reside in, and she encounters the latter two first and chases after Pumbaa to make a meal out of him. After closely inspecting the hairs, Rafiki deduces that Simba is alive and heads out to locate him. The following night, the adult Simba shakes a clump of dead hair out of his mane before lying down to sleep, which travels by various means all the way to Rafiki’s tree. Having had enough of how Scar and the hyenas have reduced the Pride Lands to utter ruin through overhunting or driving off the herds while doing it (coupled with a severe drought that has struck the area), in addition to the other lionesses being apprehensive about taking action to stop Scar, the adult Nala sneaks out of the Pride Lands one night to find help.
