Lion KING- Lying King

Lion King? or Lying King?
The lion cub. Born for greatness, chose to listen to the lies of his enemy. He looked like a friend, he sounded like a friend, even smelled like family, but he was his enemy. At great cost he listened to the lies.
The cub wandered into dry, desolate place, looking for peace. He was befriended, by those who did not know who he was, what he was destined for. He listened to these "friends" and ate bugs. Not your typical royal feast.
The enemy reigned in the cub's rightful place. He spoke defeat and hopelessness to everyone around him and they listened and believed the lies too.
When the cub came to his senses and started listening to the right messages and look to heaven for his directions. He lifted his head and made the decision to return to his rightful place. His inheritance. The true King returned and defeated the cowardly toothless enemy.
