Event: The Springtide Ball
Two weeks ago, Scar’s reign officially ended in Disney. Simba and Nala returned along with a team of heroes to confront Scar and his followers in the Pridelands. Scar was exiled to the Outlands. Later that night, a woman named Minnie Mouse showed up at the palace with King Mufasa, who had just woken from a deep spell. He quickly resumed the throne, and everyone rejoiced.
Now a ball is being thrown in the Pridelands to celebrate a new beginning. Inside the palace, the royals dance in their finest clothes. Outside on the streets of Disney City, it seems that everyone else in the kingdom is celebrating. There are musicians, acrobats, artists, and dancers everywhere you look. It’s sure to be a wonderful night, and why wouldn’t it be? Now everyone can live happily ever after.
Some things to think about:
Scar’s reign was marked with turmoil and decay. Many people lost their homes and hunger was widespread. Crime went up, especially violent crime, and those thought to be rebels were thrown into prison.
Many are not happy that Scar was exiled, and believed he should have been thrown into prison––or worse. This has caused dissent against Mufasa.
Any character could have accompanied Simba and Nala as they stopped Scar. If you’d like your character to be one of them, think about what their role could have been.
This event will last at least a week. Pick up anyone you want to try as we get back into everything!
