The Sun Will Set On My Time

"As time went by, she more and more often found herself sitting on this familiar rock at sunset, just looking. Reflecting on her long life.

Her reign had lasted long, longer than any other in her kingdom's history. She had outlived her family, the three of her five cubs that were still alive were all grown up now. Uwezo, oldest of them, would make a fine ruler. Just like his grandfather and father before him. Yes, his father... Kovu. Their reign had not lasted long when he contracted a strange disease and succumbed to it not long afterwards. She was never quite the same after that. No, she was The Widow Queen. Alone. There had never been anyone before Kovu and there was never anyone after.

But the Pride Lands had prospered under her rule, they cleverly called it "The Golden Era", and she would leave the lands much greater than they had been when she and Kovu, as Prince Regent, had assumed the thone.

But the old Queen longed to return those truly golden days. Even if her children, her pride and her subjects brought her great joy, she longed to be with him again... She couldn't help but wonder... when would the sun set on her time here?"
