00:00Previously on Iyan...
00:02Yes! He came!
00:03Stay back, thief!
00:05My name is B.E., not thief!
00:08Finding the child is of utmost concern.
00:10We shall find the girl.
00:13I hear whispers of a coming darkness.
00:15Unless you find Iyan, for she is the only one that can save us all.
00:21You are going to accompany us on a mission to capture the escaped forest girl.
00:26Maybe this will teach you how to stand up for yourself.
00:35You are the chosen!
00:46Let's go!
00:49Father, you never answered foreign minister was question.
00:53Why did the Oba and Chancellor order such a big operation to search for a young girl?
00:59The answer is in the question itself.
01:02Because the Oba and Chancellor ordered it.
01:05But do you ever question your orders, Father?
01:08What if it doesn't make sense?
01:10What if it's wrong?
01:13What if it is my duty?
01:14I have sworn an oath to the Oba, no matter how confusing his decisions may be.
01:22We are a sure warriors.
01:24We serve at the pleasure of the Oba.
01:26And the Chancellor speaks for him.
01:29So if he says this is what we are doing, then this is what we are doing.
01:33But Father, duty shouldn't be more important than what's right.
01:38Nothing should be.
01:42You sound just like your mother.
01:47Warriors, what are we doing?
01:49Relaxing in a spa.
01:51Go!
01:57Go!
02:06You are, you are, Iwania
02:15You are, you are, Iwania
02:23Do you believe in the soul of Wanda?
02:27Do you believe in the soul of Wanda?
02:30Falling on you, Iwania
02:39Why are you staring at me?
02:42I wasn't, I just...
02:45If you saw me cleanse a corrupted rhino, you'd be staring at me too.
02:51You have a point.
02:53I can't believe you are the chosen, from the old stories and prophecies.
02:57You!
02:57I'm not the...
02:58Now I see why you were being so secretive.
03:01Of course the chosen would be.
03:03It all makes sense.
03:04I thought the chosen would be taller, but you're just a...
03:08A girl?
03:09Exactly.
03:10I'm just a girl who needs supplies for my journey.
03:14Enough with this chosen business.
03:16Ugh, where am I anyway?
03:19Oh yeah, you're welcome.
03:22Chosen.
03:23I brought you to my village like you asked me to.
03:26Don't call me that.
03:28Okay, okay.
03:29I won't then.
03:31Ina?
03:32I told you my name is...
03:33Iyano, you're awake.
03:35Huh?
03:35How do you know my name?
03:37Oh, call you by your name.
03:39Don't call you by your name.
03:40Make up your mind.
03:41Uh-uh.
03:42Be quiet.
03:45Do not be frightened, child.
03:47You are safe here.
03:48Alright.
03:49Where is here?
03:51And who are you?
03:54We are in the Riverlands Settlements.
03:56And I am Mama Shewa.
03:58Mama Shewa takes care of everyone here in the Riverlands.
04:02Come.
04:03Let us show you around.
04:15Wow.
04:17I didn't know people lived so far outside the walls.
04:20The Obas and the Elumeci exiled us for the pettiest of crimes.
04:25Like stealing a mango to eat.
04:28Or so-called disorderly conduct.
04:30Or crossing the street in front of the ashore without permission.
04:34But if you are who Behe says you are,
04:38then perhaps you can help us return to an age of wonders.
04:42When there was unity in Yoruba land.
04:44And people were only exiled for actual crimes.
04:49Someone I care about is in danger.
04:52I don't think I am who you think I am.
04:56I just need supplies for my journey.
04:58That's all.
04:59I saw you cleanse that corrupted rhino with my own eyes.
05:04If you are not the chosen, then what are you?
05:09I see.
05:10Well, may I show you something that might be helpful to your journey?
05:14I guess that would be okay.
05:17What do you know about the age of wonders, child?
05:20Nothing, no.
05:21She doesn't know anything about our history.
05:25Maybe knowing more of our history will spark your sense of duty.
05:30Look down.
05:32This is the story of Yoruba land during the age of wonders.
05:37The divine ones were mighty guardians sent to Yoruba land by Eleda thousands of years ago.
05:45Led by the first father Jobba, the divine ones were spiritual guides for humanity.
05:52And for a thousand years, we lived in an age of wonders.
05:57A time filled with peace, prosperity and marvels.
06:02But peace and prosperity ended when the first father's son was seduced by dark magic and became the falling one.
06:12If all humans should worship the divine ones.
06:16The divine and humans split into two camps.
06:20The armies of light, who relied upon pure divine power.
06:25And the armies of darkness, who were fueled by false wonders.
06:30Thus began the divine wars.
06:33Father?
06:34Did you know all of this?
06:36Everybody hears those stories.
06:38And that's all they are.
06:40Stories.
06:47Let me help you with that, Chancellor.
06:50My friend, would you move away?
06:52Do not touch this, ever!
06:54Yeah?
06:57A warrior has to be present.
07:00Oh, yes, father.
07:02So you must pay attention to the world around you, instead of the ones inside your books.
07:09But I like the worlds inside my books.
07:11They are not as dangerous as the world out here.
07:14Corrupted animals ahead!
07:15Father!
07:16Look!
07:17We are well beyond the walls now.
07:20So you will see corrupted animals.
07:22Here.
07:23Put this on.
07:24It will mask yourself.
07:29It is not perfume.
07:31But it is necessary.
07:34Warriors!
07:35Cover yourselves with the dust.
07:38We are deep in corrupted animal territory.
07:41Maybe instead of a warrior like you, I can be a ward warrior.
07:46You are stubborn.
07:48But at least you have conviction.
07:49Whoa!
07:50Scout!
07:51What is it?
07:56General Kung Fu, these appear to be the ghost tracks.
08:02Fresh footprints.
08:04And it looks like she went in that direction.
08:08Good work.
08:10So, does knowing your history fill you with a sense of duty?
08:15My only duty is to get supplies for my journey.
08:18If you don't have arrows, water and food, I'll just be on my way.
08:22Eh?
08:23Little girl!
08:24You dare speak to Mama Shewa with such disrespect!
08:28I've told you many times that I must help someone important to me.
08:32Does that not matter to the people of the Riverlands?
08:37Guards!
08:38Seize her!
08:40What?
08:41That escalated quickly!
08:43But why?
08:43I didn't do anything!
08:45Because if you aren't who Bee says you are,
08:47then you give me no choice but to treat you like an intruder.
08:51Surrender quietly, intruder!
08:53And we will not hurt you!
08:55My name is Iyanu.
08:58And I'm really tired of people calling me things that start with end!
09:02Do not try to fight us!
09:04You will not win!
09:06Fight!
09:08Fight!
09:08Fight!
09:15Wanda!
09:16The Ada's got some moves!
09:19She's trained in the ways of the Agoni very well!
09:28She's outnumbered!
09:29Wait!
09:30Trust me!
09:46Tell me, can you believe it?
09:54Come on!
09:56Wait!
09:57Stop at once!
09:59This girl is The Chosen!
10:03This girl is The Chosen!
10:05It would be a great honor to serve you, my Chosen child.
10:10I might have to stop calling you Ina now.
10:13You really proved yourself out there.
10:16Oh, no!
10:17I... I'm not... The Chosen.
10:26General Carfo, according to the girl's tracks, she's likely one or two days ahead of us.
10:33All right.
10:34Warriors, it's getting late. Let us break camp here and pick up the pace in the morning.
10:41Create a dust perimeter to keep the corrupted animals at bay.
10:45I've got all this.
10:50What's that?
10:55Looks like part of an artifact from the Age of Wonders.
11:00The Divine Wars raged and the Fallen One cursed Yoruba land by corrupting all land-dwelling animals.
11:10He was caught and exiled to an eternal prison, but it was too late.
11:15Only one thing can undo the curse. Immortal with innate divine power, who connects to the Source.
11:22Oh.
11:33Father!
11:34Son, calm down. It's only me.
11:37Whew.
11:39I'll let that be praised. Corrupt animals are everywhere.
11:43Our dust should be enough to keep them out. At least the small ones.
11:47What were you doing over there, son?
11:49I was admiring this artifact from the Age of Wonders. It's even more majestic than mother's books described. Why don't
11:58we ever talk about her?
12:01Because it makes us sad. Maybe talking about her will make us less sad?
12:09Well, she was persistent, just like you. She loved books, and she was a brilliant writer. She was very spiritual,
12:19with great integrity, an honorable woman.
12:22She sounds amazing. Here. Drink this, child.
12:31Thanks. So thirsty.
12:34So, do you still just want arrows, food and water for your journey? Or will you stay and help Yoruba
12:42land?
12:42I'm sorry. I just... There's something important. Someone important who needs me.
12:50Would that someone be Oluri? The way you thought. You are clearly an apprentice of the Agoni. And Oluri is
13:00the last of the Agoni. So, she is the person you are on a mission to save, right?
13:05Yes. She means everything to me.
13:09And you mean everything to everyone.
13:12I didn't ask for these powers. I don't want to be the chosen. I just want to be Yanu.
13:19Well, you are not just Yanu. For 500 years, the people of Yoruba land have been forced to hide because
13:28of the curse. But you can restore harmony and equality in Yoruba land.
13:35All right. Tell you what, child. Give me a few days to teach you how to control your powers. Then
13:42you can choose what you want to do. You'll be more helped, Oluri, if you have more control over your
13:48powers.
13:51I suppose I can be more helped, Oluri, if I control my powers better.
13:56Can I come?
13:58No. You need to go and help Mr. Ogbeni as I asked. Or you will suffer the consequences for ignoring
14:03Mama Shewa.
14:04All right. I'm going.
14:07Come, child. Your training begins now. As the chosen, you have a trinity of powers. Unnatural, natural, and supernatural. First
14:21is the energy of the unnatural. With this power, the chosen is able to harness the chaos inside of lifeless
14:30or unnatural objects.
14:32That's amazing. Next is the energy of the natural. This ability gives the chosen the power to manipulate all of
14:42plant life. All of plant life? Yes. With practice, you can even accelerate the growth of seeds. Incredible. Finally, there
14:52is the energy of the supernatural, the most difficult to master of the trinity.
14:58Gives the chosen the ability to create divine constructs. And when you're strong enough, cure the corrupt. These three powers
15:09are natural, natural, and supernatural. They build on each other. So to get to the source, you must master all
15:20three.
15:20Okay. So far, your powers have been activated in response to conflict. And your body overloads with energy. That is
15:28why you pass out.
15:29Yes. That makes sense.
15:32You must learn to activate your powers from a place of peace to control the chaos within.
15:38Got it.
15:39You know, rushing through this will only delay your training.
15:43I'm sorry, Mama Shewa. I meant no disrespect.
15:48Good. Close your eyes. Go inside your mind to a place that brings you peace. You will practice harnessing your
15:58unnatural powers. For this, you need to master inner peace. Go back to your mind tree.
16:07Inner peace. Inner peace. Feel the chaos within the object.
16:22It's no use. I can't focus. I keep thinking about Olori and if she really needs me.
16:29I know it does not seem that way. But this is more important. Maybe you will have better luck with
16:35your natural powers.
16:41To master your natural powers, you must be able to feel the energy within plants.
16:47You can do this once you master oneness with all things. Go to a peaceful place in your mind.
16:55Feel the energy within the tree.
16:59I think I feel something.
17:06I... I did it. Not the tree, but still.
17:11Very good, child.
17:14Thank you, Mama Shewa. How much longer until I'm good enough to help Olori?
17:19Look up. I must show you something.
17:24Ah, the great Chancellor Nuro. What an unpleasant surprise.
17:32Huh. Quite a bold and brazen attitude for someone in shackles.
17:37Tell me where the child is.
17:39You have been...
17:40Oh, yes. I have seen the prophecy.
17:44Then you know you will never find Iyanu. You are destined to fail just like before. It is written.
17:52Hmm. That's me.
18:00You are the child who was blessed by the first father, Jobba.
18:04You emerge from within the earth to save it. That is the prophecy of the chosen. The prophecy of you,
18:14Iyanu.
18:16Emerge from the earth. Olori did find me in the forest. Olori! She's in danger. I can't feel it. I
18:26have to save her.
18:27You can save us, Iyanu. I can't turn my back on Olori.
18:33I did not wish to have to tell you this. But I, too, was once a member of the Agoni.
18:40You were? Do you know Olori? Why didn't you tell me?
18:44I didn't want to tell you that your Olori had me exiled.
18:49She would never do that. That is not the Olori I know.
18:54Well, she did. You might not know her as well as you believe.
19:01As many times as I've taught you how to light a fire, it just seems to fly right out of
19:07your head.
19:08But you know everything about this age of wonder's foolishness.
19:15Here, let me help you.
19:21Don't worry, father. There is room in my head for everything you've taught me and our history.
19:26More like his story.
19:31Whoever made it up so people would feel better about their existence.
19:36All right. Read me something about the Age of Wonders.
19:42It has been a long time since someone read me a fairy tale.
19:48No matter how many times you say it, I will never believe Olori would exile anyone.
19:54All right. Let me ask you a question.
19:58Has Olori ever hidden anything from you or behaved strangely?
20:11What are you doing?
20:13Do not touch that.
20:15Ever.
20:17Oneness with all things.
20:19Oneness with all things.
20:21Oneness with all things.
20:23Oneness with all things.
20:25Oneness with all things.
20:27Oneness with all things.
20:41There you go, child.
20:46Did I do that?
20:49Yes, child.
20:50You did.
20:54It must be false wonder.
20:56That's power.
20:57She's over there.
20:59At dawn, we move out.
21:00Get her and return to Elu.
21:03Get some rest.
21:04Yes, sir.
21:08Your decisions have always been terrible.
21:12Except once.
21:15You do know me the best.
21:18And yet, the Agoni are still finished.
21:21And your little apprentice, Yanu, will still soon be a distant memory.
21:28Do you know what I think about often?
21:30I do not.
21:33Nor do I care.
21:35I think about what our parents would think of us.
21:39And what you have become.
21:41Brother.
21:49Brother.
21:56You are, you are, you are, you are, you are, you are, you are, you are, you are, you are,
22:14you are, you are.
22:15You
