January 1942: Former street-urchin, turned research assistant Samuel Irons accompanies his boss, David, on a trip to Africa in search of a fabled city. When a seemingly impossible storm hits their transports, Sam loses his mentor, and finds himself stranded, far from the adults on the expedition and deep in the Pridelands in the care of...

King Simba and his pride. A few years have passed since the battle with Zira, and things have gotten to a state of normalcy when giant grey birds fall from the sky - something Sam calls "planes". While weary of this new creature: a human, Simba sympathizes with the orphan's plight deciding to teach him the Pride's ways along with his mate, Queen Nala - and grown daughter, Kiara.

All is not what it seems, however. And when Simba and Nala make the decision of a formal adoption, the anncestors - the great kings of old - answer in ways both mysterious and worrisome. It will take the united front of both the expedition, and the Pridelanders, to right a past wrong, discover the shared history that brought them together, and most importantly, save the Pridelands from catastrophe.

At the core of the Pridelands, now unveiled to humans for the first time, stands the Night Pride, a powerful matriarchal coalition led by the astute and formidable Queen Rani, alongside her valiant friend, Prince Kion. They confront an unparalleled menace. The Outsiders, once a fragmented group of exiled lions, have transformed into a deadly faction of malcontent, uniting with ostracized humans, lions, and other land creatures. This emergent alliance possesses a perilous goal: to dismantle the sacred Circle of Life. When Elias, a 22-year-old male human hunter with a complex past, is recruited by the Night Pride, he finds himself thrust into a world beyond his wildest comprehension. Initially skeptical of forming allies with lions and creatures of the wild, Elias discovers that their survival relies not just on strength, but also on unity and understanding. Led by Queen Rani's wisdom and Prince Kion's valor, Elias sets out on a treacherous trek through the savannas of the Pridelands and the desolate Outlands. Facing bravery, devastating losses, and unforeseen alliances, he discovers hidden truths within himself and the age-old connections of the ecosystem. Together, they must fight off against violent adversaries and confront the sinister masterminds of the Outsiders, all while rallying the support of other factions. As the shadow of war looms and darkness threatens their lands, the unexpected trio-a woman, a beast, and a man-will understand that it is not just the destiny of their kingdom at stake, but the fundamental nature of coexistence itself.
