Description Listen to the song while you look at this: [link]
"It was killin' me to see
The strongest man I ever knew
Wastin' away to nothin'
In that hospital room
‘You know he's only hangin' on for you'
That's what the night nurse said
My voice and heart were breakin'
As I crawled up in his bed, and said

You can let go now, Daddy
You can let go
Your little girl is ready
To do this on my own
It's gonna be a little bit scary
But I want you to know
I'll be ok now, Daddy
You can let go
You can let go"
~"You Can Let Go" , CRYSTAL SHAWANDA

**The sun crawled towards the horizon as Uru held Mufasa and Taka in her arms at the edge of Pride Rock. Ahadi and Fahari emerged from the cave were Mohatu now lied. Ahadi came over and nuzzled Uru, "He wants to see you." Ahadi looked crushed, his eyes were wet and his face was bleak. Uru nodded and handed Mufasa and Taka over to Ahadi and she headed into the cave. "Daddy," she said softly. "There you are, little star" Mohatu attempted to get up shakily. "Don't get up" Uru said as she felt a pain in her heart. Mohatu was frail and tired looking, but he also looked like he was in agony. "I hate seeing you like this, Daddy," Uru said with tears in her eyes. "I know little star, but I... I want to see my little grandsons grow up. I want to see you be a great mother, even though you already are." He managed a weak smile which Uru returned. "You can't keep living in this kind of pain."
"I can't let go either, princess... That little golden cub, he has great things in his future. So does Taka. And I want you to tell Ahadi... tell him that I am proud of him and that he will be the king this pride deserves."
Uru nuzzled close to her father, "I will Daddy." She helped him lower his head on to his paws. Mohatu put one paw over Uru's. "You," Mohatu coughed, "you tell me when you're ready."
Uru shut her eyes tight as tears continued to fall. "You can let go now, Daddy."
And with those words, the great dark maned king took his last breathes beside his daughter and the sun had set. **

When I first heard the song I bawled my eyes out and I kept picturing these two. Lots of emotion here...

Thank you

No, Taka's darkness comes from the loss of his mother. Uru attaches her self to Taka after Mohatu's death (because he resembles him in some ways) and so she baby's him and when he loses her he kind of loses himself. Mohatu never predicted that

Aww... so sad.

Though now I'm confused... it's really difficult watching two TLK artists (you and ) who each have their own take on the semi-canon families, 'cuz I don't know which story to believe! XD; In your art, Mohatu is Uru's father, but in her comic Betrothed, Mohatu is Ahadi's father. I don't know which one to go with. O.o

Nala15 is amazing, I could never make a comic so I respect her for that. I dunno, Mohatu always seemed like he was Uru's father to me
