00:14Yoruba Land
00:15For a thousand years, mankind lived in a time of peace and prosperity.
00:21Under the guidance of the Divine Ones, Yoruba Land flourished with magic and technological wonders.
00:27This era was known as the Age of Wonders.
00:33But then came the Divine Wars.
00:35A clash between the armies of light led by Dara and the armies of darkness led by the Fallen One.
00:44Facing defeat, the Fallen One unleashed a curse upon all of Yoruba Land, transforming its creatures into the corrupt.
00:52Evil beasts who ravaged our lands, forcing us to hide in fear behind the walls of Elu, the last standing
01:02city in the known world.
01:04Yet, hope remains.
01:08For it was foretold by our ancestors.
01:11A Divine One in human form would rise to reverse the Fallen One's curse and restore harmony to the people
01:20and creatures of Yoruba Land.
01:23That hope is the chosen.
01:55Ameja
01:57All in on you, we are new.
02:29Well, I missed.
02:32No child should be without her parent.
02:41Wow.
03:06Let the Alarindro deliver praise upon a departed king.
03:14Our almighty creator, rest his soul.
03:19Our songs of memory and gratitude will carry him to the realm of the ancestors
03:25and bring relief to the people of Elu.
03:36Get out of here, forest girl.
03:39You are not welcome within the inner walls of Elu.
03:42Abby, stop it now.
03:44She's done nothing to us.
03:46Toye, are you taking sides with this vine rat?
03:51Rude, I have a name.
03:54No.
03:55She's not important right now.
03:57We should ignore her and go back to your granduncle's remembrance celebration.
04:01Yeah.
04:02My father is Oba now.
04:03The king of Elu.
04:05Which means I can have you exiled for taking sides with this lonely scavenger.
04:11Perhaps you can join her in the forest.
04:14Otherwise, you should address her appropriately.
04:17Oh yeah.
04:20Good way.
04:23Forest girl.
04:24Back where you belong.
04:41Where is the chosen?
04:47You will never find her.
04:51You will never find her.
05:04Ianu, tell me what happened.
05:08Lori, I...
05:10When I got upset, I...
05:13Yes.
05:14I heard the thunder.
05:16It is nothing to be ashamed of.
05:18It was different this time.
05:21How?
05:22What made it different?
05:25I heard voices.
05:26What did you hear?
05:27What did you hear?
05:28Was it them?
05:29The divine ones.
05:30What did they say?
05:32Please.
05:34No time for your stubbornness.
05:37Tell me.
05:38I don't know.
05:39I couldn't understand what they were saying.
05:42It was too much.
05:45It is alright, my child.
05:47Can you tell me what caused you to be upset?
05:50What triggered your powers today?
05:52The Inas.
05:53They were laughing at me.
05:56Iyanu, Iyanu, Iyanu.
05:59How many times did I call for you?
06:01Do you think I enjoy wasting my voice?
06:03The forest animals do not care for the chorus of your name.
06:07I know.
06:08What have I told you repeatedly?
06:11Don't approach the inner walls of Elu.
06:14Don't approach the other districts of Elu.
06:16Never leave the forest.
06:18And why?
06:19Because it's dangerous.
06:21Because it's dangerous.
06:23I wonder if the space between your ears is a tunnel,
06:26or if you deliberately refuse to listen.
06:29I'm sorry, Eluri.
06:30I just wanted to spend some time around other kids.
06:34It was nice to hear them laugh and watch them play.
06:39I know how difficult it must be without friends.
06:42I truly understand being alone and cut off.
06:47What did the Inas say to you?
06:49They called me forest girl.
06:52And are you a girl?
06:54Yes.
06:55Do you live in the forest?
06:57Yes.
07:00I am the last of the Agoni.
07:02We were priestesses entrusted with the history of Yoruba land.
07:06And even that created a panic.
07:08A captive audience is one with a full belly.
07:11Your favorite.
07:12Pounded yam with goat meat.
07:15Pounded yam with goat meat.
07:24Forgive my manners.
07:26Thank you, Eluri.
07:28We were cast out into the forest.
07:31I know what fear can do to people.
07:33That's why I'm training you to use your powers correctly.
07:37And that begins with understanding the source.
07:45I guess we'll talk about that over dinner.
07:52We are gathered here today for the first time since the passing of my uncle and predecessor, Oba Adeni.
07:59There are many matters left unsettled by his passing.
08:05And we of the Elumeci stand by your side.
08:09So says Nuro, Chancellor and Bashongnu of the Elumeci.
08:15Let us begin.
08:17My brother, if I may?
08:21Our uncle wished to lift a ban on our citizens exploring the realm outside of the walls.
08:26We are in need of the resources in the-
08:27Blasphemy!
08:29Only our elite Esho warriors have been allowed outside the walls.
08:33It has been that way for 500 years.
08:36Elda Laguna.
08:38In 500 years, all we have left is squalor in some districts.
08:42As an ambassador, it might benefit you to actually visit people outside of the city.
08:48How dare you?
08:49The only reason you're tolerated here is because of your royal blood.
08:53Our traditions and policies shall remain unchanged.
08:57People are suffering.
08:59People are always suffering.
09:01Our sympathies should not force unwise decisions.
09:04Sympathy without action is worthless.
09:07Our uncle saw the wisdom in helping others.
09:10And it was a poor decision by Oba Adeni to allow outsiders within our walls.
09:18If your sympathies lie with the outsiders, feel free to join them in exile.
09:25There's another matter.
09:26Our warriors have encountered Ekum, the worst of the corrupted.
09:30That beast tears apart the forest in search of the chosen.
09:46The chosen?
09:48Or theневt respite.
09:48There's another family that exists in the forest.
09:49I fear she has a devuous agenda.
09:53She is the last of the Agoni.
09:55And maybe I'll only hope in cleansing the corrupts from our lands.
09:58If anything happens to her...
10:00We'll have one less exile to worry about!
10:02But since you're so concerned about the last of the Agoni, I am working on a plan.
10:13I yield! I yield!
10:18How do you always win?
10:21I'm not fighting to win.
10:23I'm allowing you to exhaust yourself with only defensive moves.
10:27Is that the way of the Agoni?
10:28Partially. We believe that fighting should be the last resort, not the first instinct.
10:34Why?
10:35Because not every opponent is your enemy. Not every enemy is your opponent.
10:41It's wise to determine which is which.
10:51For example, my existence, our existence in this forest, is a result of the Inners not knowing if we're the
11:00enemy or not.
11:01This is why the Agoni were exiled.
11:03Where are you going?
11:05The Inners are terrified because the corrupt are becoming bolder, making them even more dangerous.
11:12Why do you have them in cages?
11:14To show you how the Agoni cleansed the corruption.
11:29Whoa!
11:31If you can save the Inners, why did they exile you?
11:36I work to save them because everything in this world is symbiotic.
11:41We all depend on each other in a grand circle of life.
11:45What happens to one of us affects us all, right?
11:49Correct.
11:51They need us and we need them.
11:56Are you exiled because of me?
11:59Because of my past?
12:01What past?
12:02You know the story of how I found you...
12:05Found you in the forest, yes.
12:07Yes, but I didn't spring up from the ground like a weed.
12:11Where do I come from?
12:12The sun will hang you in the sky soon.
12:14Go gather the herbs I need or we won't be having a flavorful dinner tonight.
12:19Yes, Uluri.
12:28Why have you brought me here?
12:30Elder Alakwani, I appreciate your time.
12:33I wanted you to see something my brother and Nuro wish to ignore.
12:38Why are you insistent upon challenging Nuro?
12:41This marketplace is a reflection of the current state of our land.
12:45A small group of elites ruling over a large working class with no chance at a better life.
12:50As it has been for a long time, we in the Elum Messi have done what we could to ensure
12:56fairness.
12:58Have we?
13:13I think I have all the herbs we need for dinner.
13:15Now let's see if I can track down that glowing thing I saw around here.
13:21Maybe I did dream it up.
13:24Perhaps it's closer to the tunnel.
13:28How long do you plan on hanging at the upper's grave?
13:32It's far too late for him to grant you a backbone.
13:35Have you no respect?
13:37I do.
13:38That is why we will leave this place, so that you might learn a lesson in courage.
13:43Have you heard about Ekko?
13:45The mightiest and meanest of the corrupted.
13:48A very powerful beast.
13:50They say he searches for the chosen.
13:52And that certainly isn't you.
13:54No.
14:18They say he's eating many of the Esho, the bravest warriors in Elu.
14:24Perhaps your father is next.
14:32My father Kanfor is the greatest of Esho.
14:36Yes, but my father is the upper family.
14:39The Esho protect us all from the corrupt, including the Elum Messi.
14:44Anti-Opah, you'd better stop.
14:49No.
14:50No.
14:50No.
14:51No.
14:53No.
14:53No.
14:53No.
14:53No.
14:54No.
14:56No.
14:56No.
14:57No.
14:58No.
14:59No.
15:01No.
15:02No.
15:06No.
15:07No.
15:07No.
15:07No.
15:07No.
15:08No.
15:08No.
15:09No.
15:09No.
15:27Did you see that?
15:29She saved the children.
15:33Seize her! Now!
15:39I guess I've overstayed my welcome.
15:48She's just through here!
15:52These are false wonders. Unnatural.
15:56No matter. We go around through the main gates and cut her off.
16:05Where is the child? Where is the chosen?
16:08You cannot protect her forever.
16:11You will never find her.
16:21Oh, Laurie! Oh, Laurie!
16:24What is the matter, child?
16:25I... I... tried to help someone who was being... distraited.
16:32And?
16:33They... were inside the city.
16:36Where did you go inside the city? Was it the royal palace?
16:39No. A courtyard in the theater district, near where they buried the Oba.
16:45I'm so sorry.
16:47You have nothing to be sorry for, but we must...
16:51Oh, Laurie! Come outside! Now!
16:56We should have known the Interloper was connected to you.
17:02Kanfo, what business do you have here?
17:06Orders from the Elumesi to apprehend the Agoni of the forest.
17:10And anyone found in her company.
17:13Don't you mean orders from Nuru?
17:16Who's Nuru?
17:18Please. We need not make this unpleasant.
17:23Kanfo, as I have great respect for you, I suggest you take your own advice.
17:30So be it.
17:33Oh, yeah!
17:42Oh, yeah!
17:55My little wonder, it is time.
17:58Time? For what?
17:59To go to where the water meets the wall.
18:02Then you must leave Elu and find the source.
18:06I will stay and fight alongside you.
18:09No. This is your destiny. The truth of your past. It will all be found when you discover the source.
18:16I cannot do this without you.
18:18You can and you will. Do not stop until you find the source.
18:22I don't know where it is.
18:24Trust your instincts. This is what I have been training you for.
18:29Go. Please. Do not worry. We shall meet again. I promise.
18:36This is your last warning. Surrender. Or we will make you.
18:42Good luck.
18:56Let God apprehend the girl.
19:00And we will deal with the Agun.
19:20There she is.
19:51Where am I?
19:55I don't think I've ever been this deep into the forest.
20:04This is the Outtao Wall.
20:19Oh, Lori.
20:20I wish you were here.
20:23I don't know what to do.
20:27I wish I had your faith in me.
20:29I wish I had your faith in me.
20:32I wish I had your faith in me.
20:42Oh, I wish I had your faith in me.
20:59I wish I had your faith in me.
21:04I wish I had your faith in me.
21:04How you were here.
21:07You are, you are, you are.
21:12You are, you are, you are.
21:14You are, you are, you are.
21:17I'll see you next time.
