Ah...
the joys of being The Chosen.
Quiet, Biyi!
You are distracting her.
You still can't remember anything?
No!
Just fragments.
How many weeks has it been now?
I've lost track.
No thanks to your big head always distracting me.
I'm not sure what else to do.
It's like my memories are one big pot of egusi soup.
It's funny you should mention egusi soup...
given that you've wasted many a bowl
while trying to find answers out here by yourself.
- Food! - Jollof rice!
Thank you, Olori!
Iyanu...
saving the entirety of Yorubaland
was nothing short of a miracle,
but that miracle does not change the fact
that you didn't pass the last trial,
and thus, haven't mastered your Supernatural Powers.
This is why you struggle to remember your past.
I know, Olori.
But, if you let me,
perhaps I can help make sense of some of those...
fragments.
All right.
Good.
It is time I told you all I know
about your parents
and the Age Of Wonders.
- Yay! - Whoo-hoo!
In the beginning,
Yorubaland was a simple yet peaceful place.
Unfortunately,
our ancestors went from living in peace and simplicity
to letting the Seven Deadly Sins corrupt them,
splitting Yorubaland into 12 tribes.
The tribes waged constant war upon one another
until their chaos created a literal Dark Cloud
above Yorubaland,
called Meje,
the physical embodiment of the Seven Deadly Sins.
To help humanity,
Eleda, our Creator,
sent the Divine Ones to Yorubaland
to help usher the humans out of the Age of Darkness
and into the Age of Wonders!
♪ You are, you are ♪
♪ Iwo ni o ♪
♪ You are, you are ♪
♪ Iyanu o ♪
♪ Do you believe in the child of wonder? ♪
♪ Do you believe in the child of light? ♪
♪ Calling on you, Iyanu ♪
Ologun!
This is what we trained for.
This is why the First Father blessed us with these abilities.
Let us destroy Meje's foul creatures,
and end this war once and for all!
Ologun, now!
Hold!
Why do you serve these hopeless creatures
when you can be their god?
Release me,
and I will give you all you need
to secure your dominion over them
and this world.
The only thing I want from you, monster,
are your screams.
Why the long face, my love?
Yes...
why the long face,
"my love?"
After a decade of searching everywhere for this monster,
it feels good to end this war,
to finally call it the Age of Wonders.
My dear friend,
the Age of Wonders began
the moment my kin and I arrived
and expelled that thing from your skies.
I am very proud of you both.
Well, you know what I always say.
The best part of victory is--
A parade!
Captain Ishe.
Captain Dara.
On behalf of the tribes of Yorubaland,
we honor you and the Ologun
for putting an end to the Meje crisis
once and for all.
Chief Goke,
we, the Ologun,
are honored by the gifts of not just the Builders,
but all the tribes of Yorubaland.
We cannot take all the credit for this victory,
for even though
they are forbidden to interfere directly
in certain matters,
the mentorship of our guardians,
the Divine Ones,
has been priceless.
As you celebrate us,
you must honor and celebrate them.
Yes!
Celebrate and honor we must.
Mighty Deso,
guardian of the Warrior Tribe
and general of our saviors,
the Divine Ones,
we thank you,
along with your Ologun Warriors,
for putting an end,
albeit temporarily,
to Meje.
"Temporarily"?
We've caged the darkness for good.
Have you, now?
And what about--
Say what you came to say, Priest.
Divine Deso,
forgive me if this comes off as...
presumptuous,
but Meje in a cage does not equal Meje vanquished.
This debate has echoed
in the halls of the Divine Palace for years.
The conclusion is always the same--
trying to destroy Meje
is akin to destroying sin itself.
Hmph.
There are paths yet to be explored.
Is the One Mother aware of these... paths?
As Captain Ishe so eloquently stated,
the Divine Ones are here to guide, eh?
Not control us.
Keep my name out of your mouth, High Priest--
All I am saying is,
like all the Divine Ones,
The One Mother, Emi, allows us free will,
and we, the Priests of the Sacred Tribe,
will use that free will
to ensure that Yorubaland never returns
to the Age of Darkness,
no matter the cost.
Enough!
This will be the last
I hear of you priests
talking about matters you do not understand!
As you wish,
Divine Deso.
Enjoy your victory with your humans.
I must report to the First Father
and the One Mother immediately.
General!
Wait,
so the Divine Ones walked amongst humans?
Did things with them side-by-side?
That's all you got from that?
All I could think of
was that the Ologun,
the mightiest mortal warriors ever,
walked these very grounds.
Here we go.
- Ow! - Stop it.
What?
You are both right.
So why do people in Elu
hate the Divine Ones so much?
Because they blame them
for the end of the Age of Wonders.
That can't be right.
Are they right?
We will get to that.
For now,
know that the Divine Ones
did in fact come here to guide,
not rule...
but very quickly,
Deso was beginning to despise that notion.
Isheoluwa!
What have I told you about sneaking up on me?
That you like it when I sneak up on you.
I hope you're here to help me with the chores.
What kind of husband would I be if I didn't?
My husband.
Good point.
Ah!
Dara!
Are you all right?
I'm all right. It's nothing.
- What-- - I'm all right, Ishe.
It's a mixture of years of battle
plus the longterm effects of acquired divine power,
just as the healers told us.
My love, what are you not telling--
General!
It's been too long. How are you--
The First Father has requested you both.
You are to report to the Divine Palace at once.
Oh, uh, all right.
But, General, what--
General,
it is so good to see you after so long.
Agreed, it has been too long.
General?
Is there something we've done wrong?
Your disposition lately has been rather--
Curt?
Even with Meje gone,
it would seem your humans have reverted
to their old, disgusting habits.
After everything I have done for your people,
this is how they repay me?
By warring with one another?
This dispute between the Builders and Miners,
how long has it been going on?
It matters not.
What does matter
is that you two
are the only humans that understand it,
and understand me!
Everyone else is worthless.
Surely you don't mean that, General.
Give us time.
We will fix this.
The Builders and Miners
will learn from their mistakes,
I assure you.
My father will see you now.
♪ Asiko imole ♪

Almighty First Father,
glorious One Mother,
we are deeply honored
that you have invited us here.
Whatever the request,
we are happy to oblige
with the gift of free will
bestowed upon us by Eleda himself.
Rise.
Captains of the Ologun,
in the presence of all the Divine Ones
and the people of Yorubaland,
for your bravery in ridding the lands of Meje,
I bestow upon you both the title of...
Ajagun.
The Ologun are sworn to service until death,
but with the title of Ajagun,
you two are free to walk away
at any time of your choosing.
You have earned it.
Now I will have a word with you both in private.
- Hmm? - Huh?
First Father, is there an issue?
Have we done something wrong?
How is she?
She?
What?
I don't understand.
Who are you referring to, First Father?
The child.
Is this true?
It is.
I'm sorry, my love,
I wanted to tell you,
but I needed to be sure first.
But First Father, how is this even possible?
Our healers told us
that the acquired divine power
would prevent us from ever having children.
And they were right.
This child is a miracle.
Better yet,
she will be...
a Child of Wonder.
It's a... a she?
A Child of... Wonder?
Yes.
A being with innate divine power...
a Divine One in human form.
One that holds the key
to the ultimate salvation of Yorubaland.
You both are to protect her at all cost,
even if that cost is your life.
All right, children.
We are now at the site of our final lesson of the day.
Who can tell me what role each Divine One plays in our--
Me! Me! Me! Me!
Go ahead, Kola.
The First Father, Joba,
is King of the Divine Ones,
and oversees the rest of his kin.
The One Mother, Emi,
is the spiritual leader
and guardian of the Tribe of Priests.
Deso, their son,
is the general and guardian of the Warrior Tribe
and the Ologun.
Together, these three make up the Royal Divinity.
Ina, Omi, Aiye, Afefe, and Imole
are the Elemental Divinities
of Fire, Water, Earth, Air, and Lightning, respectively.
Together, each...
Each--
Oh...
Thank you, Kola, for that...
extensive breakdown.
Now, Royal Divinities aside,
who can tell me what role the other Divinities play?
For example--
There she is!
Chief Goke's wife.
Seize her immediately!
Oh no...
children, run!
Please, all I ask is you let the children go.
And why would I do that
when my goal is to ensure you suffer
for everything your husband and the Builders
tried to take away from us, the Miners Tribe?
Round them all up!
The Ologun.
What should we do?
It's only two of them,
and we have Nugo's weapons.
Forget the children.
Seize her now!
Big mistake.
Is that all of them?
I believe so.
We should try and...
- Incredible! - Can I be like you someday?
Thank you.
This war between the Builders and Miners
is getting out of hand.
I agree.
The events over the last few weeks
are spreading the Ologun thin.
We should contact Deso for--
Ologun!
You stand idly by
while others take from us what is rightfully ours?
Warrior Tribe, my foot!
I hate you!
You and your absent masters, the Divine Ones.
I hate you all!
Ah!
My...
return...
is...
...imminent.
What in Eleda's name was that?
I don't--
What is it?
Coordinates. It's the general.
We are to rendezvous with him at once.
Mother...
Yes, my son.
Why did Eleda send us here?
Guiding the humans seems like such a hopeless endeavor.
Will you say Dara and Ishe are hopeless?
They are different. Special.
And what makes you think
there are not many like them
who are special in their own way?
Or better yet,
humans who, with our guidance,
can become special.
You've only ever focused on the best of them.
And you've only ever focused on the worst.
Perhaps...
but this new development
proves I was right to do so.
If the Divine Ones continue to be passive,
the humans will destroy us all.
General, One Mother,
Eleda's blessings be upon you both.
Dara, Ishe...
it is good to see you both.
You too, General.
We came as soon as you hailed.
Is everything all right?
We've given your humans
everything they need to survive and thrive.
You have had an Age of Wonders for over a decade,
yet it is not enough.
It is never enough.
You would think the Builders and the Miners
being the richest of the tribes of Yorubaland
would be enough to keep them content,
yet it has made their thirst for more
insatiable.
The asinine behavior of your people
will result in the end of everything.
Once that happens,
Eleda himself won't be able to help you people.
What do you mean, General?
Meje...
it's getting stronger.
This is the result of your people's greed,
sloth,
wrath,
pride,
envy,
gluttony,
and desire...
and it will be the end of Yorubaland.
Unless...
And thus began Deso's journey into madness.
All because he was jealous of my parents?
That was only a sliver of his vices.
Deso grew resentful of humanity,
and wished for greater control of the world.
But what does Deso do
to bring about the end of the Age of Wonders?
You love getting to the end of the story
before we've even broached the middle.
Because he has nothing but free time
to bury his head in scrolls.
You say that like it's a bad thing.
Ahem. Aren't we forgetting
the most important part of the story?
My birthday!
Truly a child of wonder.
She is the most beautiful newborn
I've ever laid my eyes upon.
Be careful, First Father...
you may insult some of your own offspring.
If anyone is so petty to be jealous of a child,
they do not belong amongst the Divine Ones.
Such an angel.
Perhaps we should give this new family
some bonding time.
Mm-mm...
Thank you, One Mother.
You are most welcome, Ishe.
We'll leave you to your family now.
My love...
I know you can see the future.
When you held that baby in your arms,
what did you see?
Did you not see a smile upon my face?
I know when my husband puts on a performance.
Hmm...
Where is Deso?
Do you find it odd that he was not present
to share in the happiest of moments?
You of all are aware
of the unrest with the tribes of Yorubaland.
It has caused Deso great turmoil, and--
Dara and Ishe are the greatest of the Ologun,
and Deso's star pupils.
No human conflict should have kept him away.
You've changed the subject.
Answer my question.
What did you see?
My precognition is not absolute.
Visions of the future
shift like desert sands in the wind.
What of Iyanu?
A human child born with innate gifts.
She is... salvation.
For my family!
H'yah!
My son...
what troubles you?
Mother, do you not see what is happening?
Can you not smell the dirty smoke
caused by humanity's inability to solve their problems?
Watch your tone.
My apologies.
I did not mean to appear disrespectful.
With Eleda's grace...
my patience is spent.
We have given humans a utopia,
and in return,
they've created a kingdom of ashes.
While we are Divine,
we are not caretakers or petty gods,
demanding tribute and sacrifices.
Our guidance
paired with their reasoning
forms the basis of our relationship.
"Reasoning"?
They have no concept of the word.
Where is the reason in theft or malice?
They wage war for property
when there are thousands of miles of open land
for them to thrive upon!
Tell me, mother, in all respect,
how can we allow this to continue?
What would you suggest?
Wiping them out
and starting all over again.
Your humor has certainly changed.
Again, my apologies.
I've become too invested in the ways of mankind.
I suppose I should accept the fact
that they never seem to learn anything...
except for new ways to annoy the Divine Ones.
First Father,
I present to you my Transportation Chief,
Kaseko.
First Father,
I present my Trade Chieftess, Mojirola.
Why have you all come before the Divine Ones?
We believe the Trade Tribe
have been hiding a percentage of wealth
generated by the expanded range of our new transports.
The range of your hovercraft has expanded,
but the population has not.
Just because we can travel further
doesn't mean our profit margin has increased--
Liar!
The increased yield of product from last season
was sold,
but our percentage remained the same,
or did the Farmer's Tribe
pretend to have a surplus?
So now you want to fight me?
Oh yeah? Try it. Try me!
Enough of this!
Huh?
First Father, One Mother.
I do not understand why we tolerate this.
They are humans,
not Divine.
These people aren't even Ologun.
And because of this,
we shouldn't hear their concerns?
I am saying we don't have to!
Deso! Release him!
Now!
Of course, First Father,
but I have made my point.
If we just control them,
none of these problems would exist.
No!
So that's how everything started to go wrong.
The beginning of the end.
And humans were the ones who made the Divine Ones angry.
Deso wanted a perfect world.
He refused to accept a simple fact of life.
Which is...?
You must always give others space
to learn from their mistakes.
And Deso never grew to have patience
with those he considered beneath him.
Sounds like even the Divine Ones
had a lot to learn.
Yes...
Yes, they did.
Another year passed.
The human tribes all found reasons
to go to war with one another.
Slowly, people began to fear
that the Divine Ones would turn their backs
on humanity,
or perhaps begin to pick sides.
We've had multiple reports
of horrific screeching
and other indescribable sounds
coming from Meje's island--
Agidi...
we have discussed this at length.
Meje is an abomination of human sin.
Its only desire
is to corrupt and destroy all life.
You should not be surprised by the creature's desire
to unsettle the human population.
Of course, One Mother.
Yet, across the entirety of Yorubaland,
our people believe that Meje's influence
has increased our aggressive behavior.
Have I said something to disturb you,
Mighty Deso?
The opposite is true, fool!
It is your increased aggressive behavior
that empowers Meje.
Do you know how many times
we've had to reinforce its cage
so it doesn't escape?
- I... I... - I warned you
not to bring up this matter again,
and yet you have.
Perhaps I should take your tongue
and silence you once and--
Mighty Deso...
You are strong as you are wise,
so, on behalf of the entire Sacred Tribe,
accept my most gracious apology.
However,
regardless of what triggers what,
the issue of Meje remains,
and I'm afraid reinforcing its cage
is no longer the solution.
What, then?
I suggest we finish the job
the Divine Ones and the Ologun started years ago...
to completely destroy Meje!
Meje is a supernatural force of nature.
It is not a rampaging rhino
or a diseased hyena
that can be dealt with.
There is a universal balance
between light and darkness.
Free will determines which one reigns supreme.
You could not destroy Meje
any more than you could hope to destroy the sun itself.
Please, almighty First Father,
as you are all-seeing,
you must know if we will be victorious
in an assault against Meje.
Is there a way for you to bless us
with the knowledge of your visions?
The Divine Ones shall not interfere.
I have given you all the wisdom
that exists on this matter.
What happens next
is entirely up to you.
May Eleda protect your path.
First Father, we thank you for your time.
Go to war against Meje?
Again?
General, you can visit us anytime you like...
although I must admit,
this sounds like a strange course of action.
Is this a joke?
Are you hungry?
I'm making Iyanuoluwa's favorite meal.
Pounded yam and goat meat!
No, thank you.
The Sacred Priests believe
reinforcing Meje's cage is no longer enough.
However misinformed,
they believe Meje is the cause of humanity's troubles.
Then we need to bury it deep within the Earth.
Blowing up the island
can't remove Meje from this plane of existence.
Didn't the First Father say
the Divine Ones shouldn't interfere?
Besides that, General,
we're retired from the Ologun.
We have a new set of priorities now.
I come to you today as an old friend.
You two were the finest human warriors
I've ever trained.
And you are one of the greatest
of the Divine Ones.
We cherish our friendship with you
now and forevermore.
Although you weren't there when our child was born.
We missed you that day.
Hmm...
I won't ask you again.
You are more than a general to us.
As Dara said,
our friend, now and forevermore.
"Yet"?
We have other priorities now,
and with things going the way they are,
she needs her parents.
Both of her parents.
Alive.
So be it.
My respects to you...
and your child.
Mother, thank you for joining us in this battle,
even though Father condemned it.
I am here to ensure Meje doesn't escape.
As your father said,
the creature cannot be destroyed.
Perhaps the humans may surprise us.
Do you truly believe that?
Humanity's greatest critic.
By the way,
I saw the way you looked at Priestess Eje-Okun.
Be careful with that one,
and remember,
it is forbidden to--
H'ah!
H'ah! H'yah!
Rock Trolls?
The humans were right about one thing...
Meje's influence has indeed increased
since our last visit.
We must get to Meje's cage!
I see you are back again.
We need to erect a brand-new barrier!
Bring the Olo--
Deso!
No!
Look out!
Ah!
Protect them, my son.
Mother!
No!
Mother...
your life was worth a billion humans.
They didn't deserve your sacrifice.
No one does...
First Father, you asked for me?
Yes, Nugo.
I need you to do something for me.
This task must take priority over all others.
Is... everything okay?
No.
Our world will be irrevocably changed
within hours,
our lives, altered forever.
This is what I want you to do,
to preserve...
to save the future of Yorubaland...
For there will come a time
when they are finally ready to fight as one.
In that moment,
when they stand together united,
seemingly ordinary humans
will rise to achieve extraordinary things.
I stand before you as a son without a mother,
a divine entity without followers,
a leader without a nation.
All that remains is a warrior.
My mother believed in the right of humans
to carve out their own understanding of the world...
of civilization...
of life itself...
and at each turn, they've failed...
miserably!
I no longer wish to listen to their cries
or indulge in their petty concerns.
From this moment forward,
humanity will truly learn what it means
to deal with the Divine Ones
if they choose to stumble into our path again.
I'm so, so sorry, Deso.
Is there...
anything we can do for you?
Now? Nothing.
If you had been there
like I asked,
like I needed you to be,
perhaps she would still be with us...
with me.
General, wait!
You're our friend,
our mentor!
Please, listen!
You are not alone.
I'm aware of that, believe me...
I know exactly who I can trust.
It is shameful that our people have undone
what we've achieved here in Yorubaland.
Whatever you decide,
we are with you, General,
always.
Are you here to tighten the screws?
You've realized
no matter how many times you reinforce my cage,
the humans will always gravitate towards chaos,
and thus continue to empower me.
You know you cannot destroy me.
You're here because you need me,
but for what?
Ah...
you wish to destroy them!
Tell me, what has changed?
Everything.
Now you see it as I do.
Humans do not need or deserve free will,
but you crave their worship.
However,
for you to truly control them,
Yorubaland must return to the Age of Darkness.
In the land beyond,
many spoke of your ties to Dark Magic,
a force said to rival Divine Power.
Is this true?
Mm, yes.
All I have ever needed
is the blood of a Divine One.
If merged,
we will have a might
that can rival that of Eleda himself.
I can also raise the profile of your warriors
from mortal to divine.
Do it!
As you wish.
Let it be known to all this day
that no longer is there Deso or Meje,
but one being,
The Emissary of Darkness.
So that's how the Fallen One
became the Fallen One?
The Ologun,
how could they turn their backs on humanity?
Every action yields a reaction.
With Meje gone,
humans forgot
about what brought them the Age of Wonders
in the first place...
unity.
As terrible as it was,
the Ologun were simply reacting to humanity's dissension.
But not my parents.
No.
They had something even more precious to fight for.
- Me. - Yes.
The Ajagun decided to remain in retirement
to protect you,
just as the First Father and One Mother had commanded...
Look, Iyanu,
a gift from the First Father.
Your very own Divine Beast.
His name is Ekun,
and he will be your animal guide.
...a decision that haunted them every day,
because it kept them away from another sacred duty...
...to fight for the people of Yorubaland.
For months, the Divine Wars raged on
between the Armies of Light,
made up of the Divine Ones...
...and the Armies of Darkness,
made up of Deso and his dark Ologun cohorts.
Mighty Sonu,
we are tired of being casualties
of a war we did not ask for.
I have lost my entire family.
Is that not enough?
Has Eleda truly turned his back on us?
♪ Dide, dide Fi agbara re han... ♪
As they say,
when two elephants fight,
it is the grass that suffers.
So, you don't think he will act?
I think if he wanted to,
the First Father would have acted already.
If he sees all,
why not use that power to end it?
Just because one knows the future
does not mean they have the power to change it.
Time is like an unbreakable string;
you may bend and loop it as you wish.
It won't change the ends.
I'm not sure that makes any sense.
- Shh! - What is it?
There...
we found them.
We got your signal, and are here to rescue you.
Something is wrong.
We are sorry.
We had no choice.
We've been deceived.
Indeed.
But they wouldn't dare attack us as we are.
You are no match for pure Divine Ones.
You would be foolish to attack us as you are.
Is that so?
We will slay you where you stand!
No, Ina...
for once again you have proven
that The Divine Ones' affinity for wretched humans
will be the end of them all.
How did Deso turn our Divine Beasts against us?
I don't know,
but we must relay this information
to Mimo at once.
How?
We are outmatched.
I'm not even sure we'll make it out of this alive.
One of us can.
If I make a big enough diversion, you can--
The rights of Ebo?
You cannot be serious.
You would sacrifice yourself?
To help you flee
and do what must be done?
Absolutely.
Destroy them.
Eleda...
grant me the strength...
You wouldn't dare.
Forgive my inaction, my love,
but this was the only choice that could save them.
Forgive my intrusion, Ajagun,
but there is a matter of utmost importance
I wish to discuss with you.
We had heard... stories...
but this...
So much destruction,
so much death.
What has become of the general?
The general you knew is no more.
All that is left is the Fallen One.
Of all the human cities,
only Elu stands unaffected.
The rest have been ravaged by the chaos.
This is all my fault.
Had it not been for my hubris,
Emi would still be alive,
and this war wouldn't be tearing our land to shreds.
As much as I want to agree with your assessment,
this war is no fault of yours.
The responsibility lies
with one person only.
Deso.
Then I beg you to join the fight.
Without the First Father,
the Fallen One outmaneuvers them
in every battle.
The two of you know him better than anyone.
With you two back in the fray,
Yorubaland has a chance.
All the years
you lot spent coddling the humans
have made you weak.
You may be Divine Ones,
but you are not warriors.
I am pleased you have all gathered here
so that I may end the line of the Divine Ones
once and for all.
Ushering in an era of stability,
obedience,
and structure.
Not while I still draw breath.
Father...
You've finally decided to act.
There is more to fighting a war than swordplay.
Again with your riddles.
I wonder if any of them could have saved Mother.
You see all,
and yet you do nothing to protect your own.
You are the reason she is dead!
No, my son. You are.
When the priests came to me about Meje,
my words were clear as crystal,
"The Divine Ones shall not interfere,"
but in your obsession with punishing human imperfection,
you decided to attack Meje's island...
My love.
Forgive me, but I must know.
If he goes, will he make it back alive?
...and because of that,
your mother did something she vowed never to do
in the centuries we've been husband and wife--
ask about your fate.
And if I go with him?
In that moment,
she knew that she would have to trade her life for yours.
I didn't kill your mother.
Your hubris did.
I...
It can't...
Why...
Now you will give me the last piece of her,
so that I may end this.
You... you knew all of this.
You could have told me!
I would have gladly traded my life!
Nothing changes.
This is still your fault!
Kill him!
Protect her at all costs.
The Chosen is salvation.
No!
I will... resist!
Ekun, no!
Mother said we must remain here!
General...
it is not too late.
Please...
let us put an end to this madness,
and mend what is left of our broken world.
First we were the solution.
Now we are the problem.
He decides to take us away.
Deso!
Please!
If a sliver of you remains,
I urge you to listen.
We are not your enemies.
We are your friends.
We always have been!
"Now and forevermore"?
My friends died
when that abomination of a child was born!
With the Divine Ones gone,
I will end her and their line.
Then I will put an end to this cursed place
called Yorubaland.
Not if we have anything to do with it.
Hunh!
Let her go!
Hup... unh!
Unh!
H'yah!
Raah!
Huh?
We cannot win this fight.
It is not your battle to win.
But she can.
Know that my heart only ever belonged to you.
Until we meet again, my love.
Until we meet again, my love.
Dara!
Not in this lifetime!
Unfortunate choice of words.
Rah!
Vile creature...
you and all the animals of this land
will be my instruments of destruction!
Haunting humanity for generations!
Mother!
Mother...
Where is Father?
Remember the evil man I spoke to you about?
The Falling Man?
Yes.
"The Falling Man."
Your father is taking care of him
so that we can both be safe.
What's wrong, Mother?
Nothing, my sweet.
I just want you to remember.
Remember what?
Remember how much I love you.
I love you, Iyanuoluwa.
You will always be my little wonder.
Dara...
Ishe was a worthy distraction.
It is over, Dara.
Joba has failed.
This world is doomed.
Give me the child,
and I will make her death as quick as your own.
Where is the child?
Where is The Chosen?!
You cannot protect her forever.
You will never find her.
I will make certain of that...
even if I have to use all my power
to put you into an eternal prison.
Huh?
For my husband!
For my daughter!
Your time is done!
No!
May you emerge from the land to save it...
...Chosen.
500 years later,
you came out of this tree
at the exact moment
your mother's roots reached
and connected to the Source,
and thus began our story.
Mother...
We cannot know where we're going
until we understand from whence we came.
You are now armed with knowledge.
Use it...
and finish
what your mother and father started.
