And yes, I agree that when you're relaying a story, you're going to generalise things. Which is why I stress the fact that NO ONE but Tygra would have bothered to remember that his mother didn't call him prince that time. Claudus certainly wouldn't have bothered to mention it since he would also have generalised things. Unless you're saying Tygra doesn't remember his mom not calling him prince, at which point a lot of people's argument that 'oh, this is why Tygra is so resentful of Lion-O' doesn't make sense.

Hence why I believe that Tygra's flashback of that scene and his mother's death are his actual memories, despite him being only 2-3 years old at that time. And as a result, his desire for the kingdom is true as well.

I'm saying he probably doesn't remember it nearly as clearly as the flashback was. He might remember bits and pieces and how he felt at the time, but I don't think he would remember exact words that were said. Do you remember things your parents told you when you were 3? Exact words and not paraphrasing? Personally I can't remember much of anything before I was 5. just brief flashes. Unless he just has an eidetic memory or something I just can't see it. I wouldn't even think he would clearly remember what she looked like unless there were paintings of her around the Lair.
