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.
01:00Calm down.
01:02All right?
01:03Yes, I really saw her cure a rhino.
01:07Fine.
01:08If you must know, she's...
01:11An animal person like you and me.
01:15Alright.
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 Ina from Elu, but she's a warrior.
01:33She is the chosen.
01:49You are, you are, Ina from Elu.
01:57Do you believe in the child of wonder?
02:01Do you believe in the child of life?
02:04Falling on you, Ina.
02:18Good day, sir. I am Foreign Minister Uwa, and I would like to speak to you about some important changes
02:25I would like to make in Elu.
02:27I am Omolola, and I speak for the workers in this district.
02:32Forgive 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.
02:57I need to be here to help offset the losses the workers have been suffering daily.
03:02And no loss is acceptable to me.
03:05We are people, not just workers.
03:08This is Bolanle, 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? Those corrupt snakes would beg to differ.
03:43The supernatural is the most powerful of all the chosen powers.
03:47And the most difficult, as it requires empathy.
03:51What if it's harder than my natural and unnatural powers?
03:54And I haven't mastered those yet.
03:56This is going to take forever, and Olori needs me.
04:00There's no time to waste. You must fill the world around you now.
04:05You must master your powers to gain a proper understanding of what is to come.
04:10And to help Olori.
04:13All right. To help Olori.
04:15Good. Now sit. Close 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? A connection to all of life?
04:57I think so. Like I felt the rhinoceros.
05:01There. That is the heart of your supernatural power.
05:06This is how you will free Yoruba land. Come.
05:16Aww. Such a cute fluffy rabbit.
05:20Yay! 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.
05:34And 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.
05:56Oneness.
05:58Empathy.
05:59Surrender.
06:01No.
06:01Inner peace.
06:02Oneness.
06:03Oneness.
06:04Empathy.
06:04I cannot do this without you.
06:07It's no use.
06:09It'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.
06:17Never 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.
06:32So, I'm sorry, Mama Shewa.
06:35But I need to save Oluri.
06:37Sigh.
06:43Hey!
06:44Stop standing around looking at her.
06:46Didn't I tell you to finish collecting shells to make beads?
06:50Uh...
06:50Bee?
06:52You're staring at me, too.
06:53Eh!
06:54No, I...
06:56I...
06:56I wasn't staring, Ol.
06:57I'm the same person you were calling Ina 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, but you don't know everything.
07:17I just don't see how you could have any idea what I'm dealing with.
07:21Alright, I don't get anything, right?
07:23No!
07:24You don't.
07:25Fine.
07:26Fine.
07:29You still have much work to do to manage the chaos within, child.
07:33Look how you responded to be.
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, but it is what you must do.
08:03I mean, Iyanu.
08:06Nice shot, Iyanu!
08:08Come on, cheer up!
08:10You will master your powers eventually.
08:12I 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 balance 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, but I'm trying.
08:42I-
08:43It's not you.
08:45Just leave me alone, okay?
08:50You know, I do know what it's like to have the pressure of the whole world on your shoulders when
08:57you didn't ask 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, but 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, completely 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 Kung 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.
10:22The girl's tracks end here.
10:24She was probably taken by a corrupted beast.
10:28With 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.
10:37Even 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.
11:05We 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.
11:14Before anyone else stops.
11:16Once word spreads, many people will want to get to the so-called chosen.
11:22Even if it is false wonders.
11:27Father.
11:28I have never been so far outside the walls of Elu.
11:31And we are about to travel even farther.
11:36The horses are spooked.
11:38Something is happening.
11:50Yet.
12:00Father.
12:01I am scared.
12:02We will be all right, son.
12:04Just stay in the chariots, no matter what.
12:05Yes, father.
12:34Father, look out!
12:36Oh no, what would bother you?
12:40Stay back!
12:42Do not come any closer!
12:45Oh no!
12:46Stop that!
12:48Please?
12:50No, no, no, no, no, no, no!
12:56Yay!
13:00Toye!
13:07Toye!
13:09Where are you, son?
13:14Father!
13:16Father!
13:25There is great dissatisfaction amongst the people here.
13:28And if something isn't done soon, things could explode like a powder keg.
13:33That is why I'm inviting you to speak to the council.
13:36Where were you when children were being exiled for stealing mangoes, eh?
13:40I understand your anger and frustration, but I want to change the way the Elumesi governs.
13:46Your uncle, the previous Obadini, he tried to enact reforms that were going to help all
13:53of Yoruba land.
13:54My uncle and I spoke about the reforms he dreamt of making.
13:58I assure you I intend to follow through on his desires, my people.
14:02Yoruba!
14:03I will believe it's when I see it.
14:06Oh, my snake!
14:08I hate snakes!
14:10I hate snakes!
14:12Why do we always get the worst job?
14:15Ah!
14:16I can't move back to make you feel so poor!
14:20Badu!
14:23The situation is far more urgent than I thought!
14:26You are free at last!
14:37Good work, Chancellor!
14:40Now give your life to me, and I will release you from your pain.
14:45Ah, there is only one thing I need.
