The Rumba, Zombomble and Scare

In the lion king, a very similar plot to this one exists. Mufasa, the wonderful ruler is killed in a mining accident and leaves his brother the throne to share later with Mufasa's son, zombomble. Scare, the nasty uncle lion does not feel ready to part with the power upon Zombomble's coming of age. So he sends him to find a warthog named Rumba. Zombomble does not find the Rumbaman and comes back empty handed. (This is where the previously synonymous plots diverge). Scare is furious and tries to cut Zombomble's mighty nails, but Zombomble is faster. Scare falls of a cliff and is pummeled by a herd of hungry elephants below. This is the real tragedy. This is how Rumba's came to be.
