00:00Previously on Iyanu.
00:01Iyanu, you're awake.
00:03How do you know my name?
00:05Mama Shewa takes care of everyone in the Riverlands.
00:08Perhaps you can help us return to an age of wonders.
00:12Am I supposed to believe that the finest warriors of Elu cannot find a single little girl?
00:18I take full responsibility.
00:20She's outnumbered.
00:21Wait.
00:25God, stop at once.
00:27This girl is the chosen.
00:30She's over there.
00:31At dawn, we move out.
00:32Yes, sir.
00:33Do you know what I think about often?
00:36I think about what you have become, brother.
00:45Hurry up.
00:47Mr. Ogbeni is waiting on these.
00:49So, what you like?
00:51The chosen?
00:52Do her eyes really glow blue?
00:54Does she have lightning inside her like Divine Imola?
00:56Did you really see her cure around us?
00:59I lost everything.
01:00No.
01:00No.
01:01Calm down.
01:02All right?
01:03Yes.
01:04I really saw her cure a rhino.
01:07Fine.
01:08If you must know, she's...
01:11An animal person like you and me.
01:14Oh!
01:15All right.
01:17She's strong-willed, which can be annoying.
01:20She's also one of the best fighters I've ever seen.
01:24Her bow and arrow skills are at first rate.
01:28I thought she was just an inner form, Elu.
01:31But she's a warrior.
01:33She's the chosen.
01:49Do you believe in the child of wonder?
02:02Do you believe in the child of light?
02:18Good day, sir.
02:20I am Foreign Minister Uwa, and I'd like to speak to you about some important changes I'd like to make
02:26in Elu.
02:27I am Omolola, and I speak for the workers in this district.
02:31Forgive me. I wrongfully assumed.
02:35Do not give it another thought, Foreign Minister. You wanted to speak with me?
02:40Thank you for your grace, Omolola.
02:44Yes, I was hoping to get a spokesperson in front of the council to discuss the rising issues in the
02:50workers' district.
02:51As I now know, that would be you.
02:54Oh, well, I cannot leave the district. I need to be here to help offset the losses the workers have
03:01been suffering daily, and no loss is acceptable to me.
03:05We are people, not just workers.
03:08This is Bolanli, my apprentice.
03:10We have met before, yes? Pleasure seeing you again.
03:15So, how can we work together?
03:18It appears I made it here in the nick of time, before things got too bad.
03:35Did you really make it in time?
03:38Those corrupt snakes would beg to differ.
03:43The supernatural is the most powerful of all the chosen's powers, and the most difficult, as it requires empathy.
03:50What if it's harder than my natural and unnatural powers, and I haven't mastered those yet?
03:56This is going to take forever, and Olori needs me.
04:00There's no time to waste.
04:02You must fill the world around you now.
04:04Now, you must master your powers to gain a proper understanding of what is to come, and to help Olori.
04:12All right. To help Olori.
04:16Good. Now, sit.
04:18Close your eyes, and follow my voice.
04:21Breathe.
04:23Go into your mind, and imagine the cycle of life.
04:29Imagine rain watering the earth, and nourishing the soil.
04:34Imagine life growing out of it.
04:41That life feeds other life.
04:45And one day, that life returns to the soil from where it came.
04:53Did you feel it?
04:55A connection to all of life?
04:57I think so.
04:58Like I felt the rhinoceros.
05:00There.
05:02That is the heart of your supernatural power.
05:06This is how you will free Yoruba Land.
05:09Come.
05:15Aw, such a cute, fluffy rabbit.
05:20Yay!
05:21You're not so cute anymore.
05:23Why haven't I learned by now?
05:25I long for the day animals' eyes don't shine like lanterns.
05:29You can help with that, Chosen.
05:32First, find the feeling you just found, and free this rabbit.
05:36But, I don't know if I can do it on demand.
05:40The rhino thing was an accident.
05:43I wish I had the glistening powder Oluri used to free the animals.
05:47You must learn to access your powers from within.
05:52Now, close your eyes and focus.
05:55Inner peace.
05:57Oneness.
05:58Empathy.
05:59Surrender.
06:00No.
06:01Inner peace.
06:02Surrender.
06:03Oneness.
06:03Oluri.
06:04Empathy.
06:04I can't do this without you.
06:07It's no use.
06:09I'm trying to connect to the energy and feel the rabbits.
06:13But, all I feel is that something bad is happening to Oluri.
06:18Never mind that now, child.
06:20You must master your powers and go to the source.
06:24Forget about what you want to do.
06:26This is what you need to do.
06:28But, she said I could decide after you helped me with my powers.
06:31So, I'm sorry, Mama Shewa.
06:35But, I need to save Oluri.
06:42Hey!
06:44Stop standing around looking at her.
06:46Didn't I tell you to finish collecting shells to make beads?
06:50Uh, Bea, you're staring at me too.
06:53Eh!
06:54No, I...
06:56I wasn't staring, though.
06:58I'm the same person you were calling Inna a little while ago, you know?
07:01I know.
07:03It's not that.
07:05It's...
07:07I know what you're going through.
07:09There's no way you could ever know how I'm feeling right now.
07:13Well, you might be the chosen.
07:15But, you don't know everything.
07:17I just don't see how you could have any idea what I'm dealing with.
07:21All right.
07:21I don't get anything, right?
07:23No.
07:24You don't.
07:25Fine.
07:25Fine.
07:29You still have much work to do to manage the chaos within, child.
07:34Look how you responded to B.
07:36But, Mama Shewa, how can I manage chaos when everything is chaotic?
07:42And he's so annoying.
07:44You're annoying.
07:45At the moment, you are both annoying.
07:49It is not meant to be easy.
07:51But it is what you must do.
07:59Bonda!
08:00Nice shot for an Inna...
08:04I mean...
08:05Iyanu.
08:06Nice shot, Iyanu.
08:08Come on, cheer up.
08:10You will master your powers eventually.
08:13I know it's intense.
08:15But I really do understand what you're going through.
08:18But how can you?
08:19You said yourself, all of your bad land is depending on me.
08:24So, no pressure at all.
08:27Do you want to try shooting the manga again?
08:29Bet you won't get it this time.
08:33Hey!
08:34Watch the face!
08:38Look, I'm not great at cheering people up.
08:40But I'm trying.
08:42I...
08:43It's not you.
08:45Just leave me alone, okay?
08:50You know...
08:52I do know what it's like to have the pressure of the whole world on your shoulders when you didn't
08:58ask for it.
09:00It's too much.
09:02My father used to say, the world seeks and rewards those who strive to make it better.
09:10Okay.
09:11But making the world better is a lot for one girl to do.
09:15That's why you're not doing it alone.
09:19So, what happened to your father?
09:23My father tried to do great things for our people.
09:27But greedy, corrupt politicians had their own selfish goals.
09:34So, they got rid of my father and exiled me.
09:37After he was gone, I was on my own.
09:41Completely alone in the world.
09:42Until Mama Showa found me and took me in.
09:53So, I guess we do have more in common than I thought.
09:57More than you know.
10:10General Kang-Fu, footprints.
10:13These tracks must belong to the girl, based on the size and freshness of them.
10:18And these tracks belong to a large animal.
10:21Now, the girl's tracks end here.
10:24She was probably taken by a corrupted beast.
10:27With respect, sir, I don't think she was.
10:30Bless the young and hopeful.
10:32But I find it highly improbable that a child could survive out here by herself.
10:38Even one of so-called false wonders.
10:40Let us hear what my son has to say.
10:42Why do you think that, Tui?
10:44Look at the impressions of the footprints.
10:46They are all evenly spaced.
10:48Which suggests that she was running.
10:51And this one.
10:52Look how deep the impression is.
10:54I think she jumped.
10:55Probably to escape the corrupt animal.
10:57Hmm.
10:58The boy might be right.
11:03Good work, son.
11:04We will follow the river.
11:06And hopefully, pick up our tracks again.
11:08Good idea, father.
11:10Hurry.
11:11We need to get to the girl fast before anyone else stops.
11:17Once word spreads, many people will want to get to the so-called chosen.
11:22Even if it is false wonders.
11:27Father, I've never been so far outside the walls of Elu.
11:31And we're about to travel even farther.
11:36The horses are spooked.
11:38Something is happening.
11:49Warriors, corrupt leopards.
11:51The horses are spooked.
11:54Get into familiar.
12:00Father, I'm scared.
12:02It will be all right, son.
12:04Just stay in the chariots no matter what.
12:05Yes, father.
12:19Yes, father.
12:34father look out oh no what would father do you stay back do not come any closer
12:45oh no stop that please
13:04oh yeah where are you son
