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.
01:51Let's go!
01:57Let's go!
01:59What is this?
02:02Let's go!
02:05Let's go!
02:07Let's go!
02:07Oh!
02:07You are!
02:09You are!
02:11You are!
02:11I want you!
02:14You are!
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. 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.
03:23I 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.
03:43Be quiet. Do not be frightened, child. You are safe here.
03:48All right. Where is here? And who are you?
03:53We 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 Obas and the Elumesi 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 Eshaw 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. That'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?
05:08I see.
05:09Well, 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.
05:31This 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.
06:13If all humans should worship the divine ones, the 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.
06:29Thus began the divine wars.
06:33Father, did 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.
07:08But I like the worlds inside my books.
07:11They are not as dangerous as the world out here.
07:14Corrupt 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.
07:37First, we 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.
08:11So, 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.
08:22Huh?
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!
08:39Ah!
08:40What?
08:41That escalated quickly!
08:43But why?
08:43I didn't do anything!
08:44Because 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, and 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!
09:06Fight!
09:07Fight!
09:08Fight!
09:10Fight!
09:11Fight!
09:11Fight!

09:12Fight!
09:14Fight!
09:14Fight!
09:16Wanda!
09:16The Ada's got some letters.
09:19She's trained in the ways of the Agoni very well.
09:27She's outnumbered.
09:29Wait.
09:31Trust me.
09:56stop at once this girl is the chosen
10:05it would be a great honor to serve you my chosen child i might have to stop calling you
10:12inna now you really proved yourself out there yanu i i'm not the chosen
10:26general campho according to the girl's tracks she's likely one or two days ahead of us
10:33all right warriors it's getting late let us break camp here and pick up the pace in the morning
10:40create a dust perimeter to keep the corrupted animals at bay
10:50what's that
10:55looks like part of an artifact from the age of wonders
10:59the divine wars raged and the fallen one cursed yoruba land
11:06by corrupting all land dwelling animals he was caught and exiled to an eternal prison
11:13but it was too late only one thing can undo the curse immortal with innate divine power
11:20who connects to the source
11:22oh
11:23oh
11:33father
11:33son calm down it's only me
11:37oh

11:46ones

11:49i was admiring this artifact from the age of wonders
11:53it's even more majestic than mother's books described
11:57why don't we ever talk about her
12:01because it makes us sad
12:05maybe talking about her will make us less sad
12:09well
12:11she was persistent just like you

12:17she was very spiritual with great integrity

12:46someone important
12:48who needs me
12:50would that someone be
12:52olori
12:54the way you thought
12:56you are clearly an apprentice of the agoni
12:58and olori is the last of the agoni
13:01so
13:01she is the person you are on a mission to save right
13:05yes
13:06she means everything to me
13:09and you mean everything to everyone
13:12i didn't ask for these powers
13:15i don't want to be the chosen
13:17i just want to be yanu
13:19well you are not just yanu

13:58you need to go and help mr okbeni as i asked
14:01or you will suffer the consequences for ignoring mamashewa
14:04all right
14:06i'm going
14:35come child
14:37this bill is pro it's pro gift
14:55i'm going to go to this community
15:03this ability to give you the chosen the power to manipulate all of plant life
15:07These three powers are natural, natural, and supernatural.
15:15They build on each other.
15:17So to get to the source, you must master all three.
15:20Okay.
15:21So far, your powers have been activated in response to conflict.
15:25And your body overloads with energy.
15:27That is why you pass out.
15:29Yes, that makes sense.
15:31You must learn to activate your powers from a place of peace
15:36to control the chaos within.
15:38Got it.
15:39You know, washing through this will only delay your training.
15:43I'm sorry, Mama Shawa.
15:45I meant no disrespect.
15:48Good.
15:50Close your eyes.
15:52Go inside your mind to a place that brings you peace.
15:57You will practice harnessing your unnatural powers.
16:00For this, you need to master inner peace.
16:03Go back to your mind tree.
16:07Inner peace.
16:09Inner peace.
16:12Feel the chaos within the object.
16:22It's no use.
16:24I can't focus.
16:25I keep thinking about Oluri and if she really needs me.
16:29I know it does not seem that way.
16:31But this is more important.
16:33Maybe we will have better luck with your natural powers.
16:41To master your natural powers,
16:43you must be able to feel the energy within plants.
16:47You can do this once you master oneness with all things.
16:52Go to a peaceful place in your mind.
16:54Feel the energy within the tree.
16:59I think I feel...
17:02Something.
17:06I...
17:06I did it.
17:08Not the tree, but...
17:10Still.
17:11Very good, child.
17:13Thank you, Mama Shewa.
17:15How much longer until I'm good enough to help Oluri?
17:19Come.
17:20I must show you something.
17:24Ah.
17:25The great Chancellor Nuro.
17:28What an unpleasant surprise.
17:31Huh.
17:32Quite a bold and brazen attitude.
17:35For someone in shackles.
17:37Tell me where the child is.
17:38You have been...
17:40Oh, yes.
17:41I have seen the prophecy.
17:44Then you know you will never find Iyanu.
17:47You are destined to fail just like before.
17:51It is written.
17:53Hm.
17:54Hm.
17:58That's me.
18:00You are the child who was blessed by the first father, Jobba.
18:05You emerged from within the earth to save it.
18:09That is the prophecy of the chosen.
18:12The prophecy of you, Iyanu.
18:16Emerge from the earth.
18:18Oluri did find me in the forest.
18:22Oluri.
18:22She's in danger.
18:24I can't feel it.
18:26I have to save her.
18:28You can save us, Iyanu.
18:30I can't turn my back on Oluri.
18:33I did not wish to have to tell you this.
18:36But I, too, was once a member of the Agoni.
18:40You were?
18:41Do you know, Oluri?
18:43Why didn't you tell me?
18:44I didn't want to tell you that your Oluri had me exiled.
18:49She would never do that.
18:51That is not the Oluri I know.
18:54Well, she did.
18:55You might not know her as well as you believe.
18:59Ah.
19:01As many times as I've taught you how to light a fire,
19:05it just seems to fly right out of your head.
19:08But you know everything about this age of wonder's foolishness.
19:15Here.
19:16Let me help you.
19:21Don't worry, Father.
19:22There is room in my head for everything you've taught me and our history.
19:27More like his story.
19:30Whoever made it up so people would feel better about their existence.
19:36All right.
19:37Read 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 Oluri would exile anyone.
19:54All right.
19:56Let me ask you a question.
19:58Has Oluri ever hidden anything from you or behaved strangely?
20:11What are you doing?
20:13Do not touch that.
20:15Ever.
20:18Oneness with all things.
20:19Oneness with all things.
20:21Oneness with all things.
20:23Oneness with all things.
20:25Ah.
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.
