[Lion King's Castle] Why Did the King Change?

What did he say when you gave him the フラワーブック? Did he believe you this time? Judging from the look on your face, I suspect it didn't go so well. Leon's heart has frozen, and no truth can melt it...

What made him change like this? I don't know... To tell you the truth, I don't remember much about those dark times. Every time I try, I see flames and hear screams...

I...was...timid by nature, so I probably blocked everything out. But, perhaps someone braver than I...perhaps one of the knights might remember more. Could you go find someone like that and ask him if he knows what made Leon change?

I'm sure none of the knights are alive. But I'm sure there is at least one who is guarding the castle as a ghost like me.

I'm sorry. I've asked you for so much already. You're not even related to Leon...

Have you met イピア?

Yes, she wanted know why the Lion King changed like this. Do you have any idea?

Did the king change? He was a great king... It's a long story, though. Would you like to hear it?

As you can see, our kingdom is in a cold, snowy region. Because of our location, we weren't a wealthy kingdom. Instead, we were modest... And perhaps that's why the people here had warm hearts. We didn't care about grander things.

And that was probably why we remained calm when the rumor came that the Black Mage had appeared. Whatever the Black Mage's plan was, we figured he wouldn't attack our kingdom. The kingdom had not a single thing worth taking.

Even when the Alliance was formed, our kingdom wanted to stay out of it. We wanted nothing to do with the Black Mage, as every single person was important to our kingdom. So, our consensus was to decline the request from the Alliance.

However, the Alliance did not accept our response. They called us minions of the Black Mage, and attacked our kingdom. We held out as long as we could, but our kingdom was too small and weak... Our kingdom fell soon after the attacks had begun.

When the king returned after trying to negotiate with the Alliance, only the castle was left, ravaged by flames. I can't even imagine what he must have been going through. In that moment, he lost everything. Driven to despair and fury, the King decided to join the Black Mage.

I'm sure there is another ghost here somewhere. A knight...he would know. Please search the castle.
