Kovu and Kiara's shitty daughters

Description

I never bothered to design offspring for Lion King characters, which is strange, as I've pretty much designed an entire family tree for every character from Ed, Edd n Eddy. So, years after everyone has already designed their own interpretation of Kovu and Kiara's cubs, here is my late submission.

As the first two movies were based on Shakespearean stories, I decided to base this fake Lion King 3 on the story of "King Lear". The Lear King. Lewl.
For people who don't know, it's about a king so dumb, he urges his three daughters to kiss his ass in exchange for his land. The two eldest do a good job lying in his face, but the youngest is a good kid, and good kids get nothing in old stories. As soon the other two get their share of land, they pretty much immediately tell their father to suck it and of course everyone dies at the end somehow.

How can we put a story like this through a Disney filter.

I guess we can put Kovu and Kiara in a position where two of their daughters exhibit some familiar personality traits and act much like Scar and Zira, which worries their surroundings. So, translating king Lear's idiot plan here, Kovu tests his daughters' kindness and loyalty to the Pridelands and its animals.
While the two eldest appear intelligent, strong, kind and all that, the dumb little blonde is like a worse Kiara and she only has kindness to show for. She's extremely weak and ignorant, thus everyone makes the hasty decision that the two eldest should rule over the kingdom together, and Moyoni eventually leaves the tribe like the discarded princess that she is. But instead of telling it like that, we'll make it less dramatic by having her move in with her boyfriend from another tribe, because she wants to and can. It's not Disney if there's no romance.
So I guess Mjanja and Msukumizi are the villains of the story and destroy the land like Scar once did. It would be typical if Moyoni were to return and save the day somehow, so maybe a nice twist would be if one of the "evil" sisters gets a change of heart and fights the other. Like a Mufasa and Scar childhood story if Mufasa was also misguided, and then fought off Scar himself.
I don't know, but does it matter, it's not going to be a real movie, anyway.

1 this is racist

2 Disney doesn’t have a thing with making their villains black they have a thing with making there villians queer

3. the only Black Disney villains that I can recall is dr. Faciler and everyone is Black in that movie. Yes Scar is darker but that doesn’t mean he’s black.

4. This would be Lion King 4 not 3
