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.
01:51Move it, move it out, come on, leave it out.
02:07Go!
02:07I need I, I want you.
02:23Do you believe in the child of wonder?
02:28Do you believe in the child of life?
02:30Falling on Julian
02:40Why 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! I'm not the...
02:58Now I see why you are being so secretive.
03:01Of course the chosen would be. It all makes sense.
03:04I thought the chosen would be taller, but you're just a...
03:08A girl?
03:09Exactly. I'm just a girl who needs supplies for my journey.
03:14Enough with this chosen business.
03:17Where am I anyway?
03:19Oh yeah. You're welcome.
03:22Chosen. I brought you to my village like you asked me to.
03:26Don't call me that.
03:28Okay, okay. I won't then.
03:31Ina?
03:32I told you my name is...
03:33Iyanu. You're awake.
03:35Huh?
03:35How do you know my name?
03:37Oh, call you by your name. Don't call you by your name. Make up your mind.
03:42Uh-uh.
03:42Be quiet. Do not be frightened, child. You are safe here.
03:48All right. Where is here? And who are you?
03:53Welcome. We are in the Riverlands Settlement. And I am Mama Shewa.
03:58Mama Shewa takes care of everyone here in the Riverlands.
04:02Come. Let us show you around.
04:15Wow. I didn't know people lived so far outside the walls.
04:20The Ubers and the Illumesi 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 Bihi says you are, then perhaps you can help us return to an age of
04:41wonders.
04:42When there was unity in Yoruba land. And people were only exiled for actual crimes.
04:49Someone I care about is in danger. I don't think I am who you think I am. I just need
04:57supplies for my journey. That's all.
04:59Uh-uh. I saw you cleanse that corrupted rhino with my own eyes. If you are not the chosen, then
05:06what are you?
05:08Uh-uh.
05:09I see. Well, may I show you something that might be helpful to your journey?
05:14I guess that would be okay.
05:16Okay. What do you know about the age of wonders, child?
05:20Nothing, no. She doesn't know anything about our history.
05:25Maybe knowing more of our history will spark your sense of duty.
05:30Look down. This is the story of Yoruba land during the age of wonders.
05:38The Divine Ones were mighty guardians sent to Yoruba land by a letter thousands of years ago.
05:45Led by the First Father, Yoruba, the Divine Ones were spiritual guides for humanity.
05:51And for a thousand years, we lived in an age of wonders, a time filled with peace, prosperity, and marvels.
06:01But peace and prosperity ended when the First Father's son was seduced by dark magic and became the Falling One.
06:13If all humans should worship the Divine Ones.
06:16The Divine Ones, the Divine Ones split into two camps.
06:20The armies of light, who relied upon pure divine power, and the armies of darkness, who were fueled by false
06:28wonders.
06:30Thus began the Divine Wars.
06:33Father, did you know all of this?
06:36Everybody hears those stories.
06:38And that's all they are. Stories.
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, look!
07:17We are well beyond the walls now.
07:20So you will see corrupted animals.
07:22Here, put this on.
07:24It will mask yourself.
07:29It is not perfume, but it is necessary.
07:34Warriors, cover 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, but 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.
08:23Little 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, seize her!
08:40What?
08:41That escalated quickly!
08:43But why?
08:43I didn't do anything!
08:45Because if you aren't who Bees says you are, then you give me no choice but to treat you like
08:50an intruder!
08:51Surrender quietly, intruder!
08:53And we will not hurt you!
08:55My name is Iyanu, and 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! Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!
09:15Wanda!
09:16The era's got some moves!
09:19She's trained the ways of the Agoni very well!
09:27She's out! No, DIRECT!
09:29She's out here!
09:30Wait...
09:31Trust me...
09:56God, stop at once.
09:58This 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.
10:14You really proved yourself out there, Yanu.
10:17I am not the chosen.
10:26General Kanfo, according to the girl's tracks, she is likely one or two days ahead of us.
10:33All right.
10:34Warriors, it's getting late.
10:36Let us break camp here and pick up the pace in the morning.
10:41Create a dust perimeter to keep the corrupted animals at bay.
10:45General Kanfo, what's that?
10:54Looks 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.
11:17Immortal with innate divine power who connects to the Source.
11:23Oh.
11:25Oh.
11:27Oh.
11:28Oh.

12:11persistent just like you she loved books and she was a brilliant writer she was very spiritual
12:19with great integrity an honorable woman she sounds amazing here drink this child
12:31thanks so thirsty so do you still just want arrows food and water for your journey
12:40or will you stay and help yoruba land i'm sorry i just there's something important someone
12:48important who needs me would that someone be olori the way you thought you are clearly an
12:57apprentice of the agoni and olori is the last of the agoni so she is the person you are on
13:04a mission
13:04to save right yes she means everything to me and you mean everything to everyone i didn't ask for
13:14these powers i don't want to be the chosen i just want to be yanu well you are not just
13:21yanu for 500
13:23years the people of yoruba land have been forced to hide because of the curse
13:30but you can restore harmony and equality in yoruba land all right tell you what child give me a few
13:39days to teach you how to control your powers then you can choose what you want to do you'll be
13:45more
13:45help to lori if you have more control over your powers i suppose i can be more help to lori
13:54if i
13:54control my powers better can i come no you need to go and help mr benny as i asked or
14:02you will suffer
14:02the consequences for ignoring mama shewa all right i'm going come child your training begins now
14:12as the chosen you have a trinity of powers unnatural natural and supernatural first is the energy of the
14:23unnatural with this power the chosen is able to harness the chaos inside of lifeless or unnatural
14:31objects that's amazing next is the energy of the natural this ability gives the chosen the power to
14:40manipulate all of plant life all of plant life yes with practice you can even accelerate the growth of
14:51the energy of the supernatural the most difficult to master of the trinity gives the chosen the ability
15:01to create divine constructs and when you're strong enough cure the corrupt these three powers are natural
15:10natural natural and supernatural they build on each other so to get to the source you must master all three
15:20okay so far your powers have been activated in response to conflict and your body overloads with energy
15:28that is why you pass out yes that makes sense you must learn to activate your powers from a place
15:35of peace
15:36to control the chaos within got it you know washing through this will only delay your training
15:43i'm sorry mama shawa i meant no disrespect good close your eyes go inside your mind to a place that
15:54brings you
15:55peace you will practice harnessing your unnatural powers for this you need to master inner peace
16:03peace go back to your mind tree inner 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 i know it
16:30does not seem
16:30that way but this is more important maybe we will have better luck with your natural powers
16:41to master your natural powers you must be able to feel the energy within plants you can do this once
16:49you master oneness with all things go to a peaceful place in your mind feel the energy within the tree
16:59i think i think i feel something
17:06i i did it not the tree but still very good child thank you mama shewa how much longer until
17:16i'm good

18:39you were do you know
18:42olori why didn't you tell me i didn't want to tell you that your olori had me exiled she would
18:50never do
18:51that that is not the olori i know well she did you might not know her as well as you
18:58believe
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
19:27more like his story whoever made it up so people would feel better about their existence
19:34all right read me something about the age of wonders it has been a long time since someone read me
19:46a
19:46fairy tale no matter how many times you say it i will never believe olori would exile anyone
19:54all right let me ask you a question has olori ever hidden anything from you or behaved strangely
20:11what are you doing do not touch that ever
20:17oneness with all things oneness with all things oneness with all things oneness with all things
20:27Oneness with all things.
20:41There you go, child.
20:46Did I do that?
20:49Yes, child. You did.
20:53This must be false wonder.
20:57She's over there.
20:59At dawn, we move out.
21:01Get her and return to Elu.
21:03Get some rest.
21:04Yes, sir.
21:08Your decisions have always been terrible.
21:12Except once.
21:14You 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.
21:27Do you know what I think about often?
21:30I do not.
21:32Nor do I care.
21:34I think about what our parents would think of us.
21:39And what you have become.
21:42Brother.
21:49I know it's been unsuccessful.
21:55I know we've lost.
21:55You're the best.
21:56Then you're out.
22:06You are.
22:09You are.
22:10You are.
22:11You are.
22:12You are.
