[Iyanu gasping with effort]

[Biyi] Ah...

the joys of being The Chosen.

[Toye] Quiet, Biyi!

You are distracting her.

[grunting with effort]

[gasping and panting]

[groaning with frustration]

You still can't remember
anything?

No!

Just fragments.

[Biyi yawning]

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.

[Olori] 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!

[?]

[sniffing]

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.

[Olori] Good.

It is time I told you
all I know

about your parents

and the Age Of Wonders.

- [cheering] Yay!
- Whoo-hoo!

[Olori] 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!

[explosions, people grunting]

[?]

[stomping]

[grunting with effort]

[?]

Ologun!

This is what we trained for.

This is why the First Father
blessed us with these abilities.

[cheering]

Let us destroy Meje's
foul creatures,

and end this war
once and for all!

Ologun, now!

[Meje roaring]

Hold!

[Meje] 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.

[shrieking and roaring]

Why the long face, my love?

Yes...

why the long face,

"my love?"

[laughing]

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-

- [together] A parade!
- [chuckling fondly]

[?]

[crowd cheering]

[?]

[Chief Goke] 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!
- [crowd gasping]

Celebrate and honor we must.

[clearing throat in annoyance]

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.

[exasperated sighing]

Divine Deso,

forgive me
if this comes off as...

presumptuous,

but Meje in a cage
does not equal Meje vanquished.

- [crowd gasping]
- 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!

[staff slamming, crowd gasping]

- [Agidi gasping]
- 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!

[sonic boom overhead]

[Iyanu] 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.

[gasping]

- [sniffing grass]
- 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?

[Olori] 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?

[chuckling] That you like it
when I sneak up on you.

[chuckling together]

I hope you're here
to help me with the chores.

What kind of husband
would I be if I didn't?

My husband.

[laughing]

Good point. [chuckling]

[gasping] 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-

[incoming message chiming]

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.

[grunting in irritation]

General?

Is there something
we've done wrong?

Your disposition lately
has been rather-

Curt?

[grumbling]

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.

[choir singing] ? Asiko imole ?

? Eleda ti se ?

? Be lo ma ri ?

? Ase ?

? Asiko imole ?

? Eleda ti se ?

? Be lo ma ri ?

? Ase... ?

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.
- [drums beat significantly]

[gasping]

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.

[Divine Ones
gasping in curiosity]

- Hmm?
- Huh?

[?]

[snapping fingers]

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.

[Dara] 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!

[chuckling]

Go ahead, Kola.

[speeding]

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.

[panting]

Together, each...

Each- [gasping wearily]

Oh...

Thank you, Kola, for that...

extensive breakdown.

Now, Royal Divinities aside,

who can tell me what role
the other Divinities play?

For example-

- [angry voice] There she is!
- [students gasping]

Chief Goke's wife.

Seize her immediately!

- [soldiers shouting]
- Oh no...

children, run!

[soldiers shouting angrily]

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!

[children crying in fear]

[roaring]

[crying out in pain]

[gasping in shock]

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.

[shouting and struggling]

[grunting with impact,
children cheering]

[grunting with effort,
blows thudding]

[gasping]

Is that all of them?

I believe so.

[cheering]

We should try and...

- [children] 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-

[voice roaring] 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!

[panting and seething]

[enraged roaring]

[grunting with impact] Ah!

[struggling]

My...

return...

is...

[Meje echoing] ...imminent.

[disembodied cackling]

What in Eleda's name was that?

I don't-

[incoming message chiming]

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.

[sonic boom overhead]

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.

[muffled roaring]

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?

[muffled roaring]

[Deso] 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...

[Meje screaming]

[?]

[munching]

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!

[laughing]

[?]

[cooing softly]

[cooing and babbling]

Truly a child of wonder.

[baby Iyanu babbling]

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.

[laughing]

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...

[chuckling]

[resigned sigh]

[baby babbling]

Thank you, One Mother.

[Emi]
You are most welcome, Ishe.

We'll leave you
to your family now.

[baby Iyanu babbling]

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.

[sighing] Hmm...

Where is Deso?

Do you find it odd
that he was not present

to share in the happiest
of moments?

[Emi] 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.

[Emi] What of Iyanu?

A human child
born with innate gifts.

[Joba] She is... salvation.

[cooing and babbling]

[grunting with disgust]

[explosions and screaming below]

[weeping]

[?]

[soldiers shouting,
child weeping]

[Iyanu laughing happily]

[gasping in delight]

[laughing]

[soldiers roaring]

For my family!

H'yah!

[gasping in triumph]

[shrieking and struggling]

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!

[groaning in pain]

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!
- [gasping]

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.

[Toye] 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... [sighing]

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.

[Deso seething and grumbling]

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-

[soothingly] 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?

[sighing]

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.

[group murmuring]

[Dara] 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.

[Iyanu sighing happily,
Deso grumbling]

[Dara chuckling]

Is this a joke?

Are you hungry?

I'm making
Iyanuoluwa's favorite meal.

Pounded yam and goat meat!

[giggling]

[sniffing and sighing happily]

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.

[shouting excitedly]

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-

[gasping]

[Deso roaring]

[warriors shouting]

[roaring]

H'ah!

[?]

H'ah! H'yah!

Rock Trolls?

[Emi] The humans
were right about one thing...

Meje's influence
has indeed increased

since our last visit.

[Deso]
We must get to Meje's cage!

[Meje cackling wickedly]

[Meje] I see
you are back again.

We need to erect
a brand-new barrier!

Bring the Olo-

[troll roaring]

[humans gasping and screaming]

[troll roaring]

[Meje cackling wickedly]

[roaring ferociously]

[thunderous shrieking]

[gasping]

[grunting with effort]

[humans gasping]

Deso!

No!

Look out!

Ah!

[?]

[screaming in horror]

[Emi] Protect them, my son.

[Deso] Mother!

No!

[roaring]

[Deso] Mother...

your life was worth
a billion humans.

They didn't deserve
your sacrifice.

No one does...

[hammer clanging]

[Nugo] First Father,
you asked for me?

[Joba] Yes, Nugo.

[hammer clanging]

I need you to do
something for me.

This task must take priority
over all others.

[Nugo] Is... everything okay?

[Joba] 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...

[hammer clanging]

[?]

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.

[?]

[kissing]

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.

[Iyanu giggling playfully]

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.

[warrior] It is shameful
that our people have undone

what we've achieved here
in Yorubaland.

Whatever you decide,

we are with you, General,

always.

[Meje] Are you here
to tighten the screws?

[Meje chuckling cruelly]

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?

[gasping] Ah...

you wish to destroy them!

Tell me, what has changed?

[Deso] Everything.

[Meje] 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?

[Meje] 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!

[Meje] 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.

[Deso screaming]

[Ologun screaming]

[Biyi]
So that's how the Fallen One

became the Fallen One?

[Toye] The Ologun,

how could they turn
their backs on humanity?

[Olori] 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.

[Iyanu] But not my parents.

[Olori] No.

They had something even more
precious to fight for.

- [Iyanu] Me.
- [Olori] 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.

- [Iyanu gasping]
- Your very own Divine Beast.

[Ishe] His name is Ekun,

and he will be
your animal guide.

[laughing in delight]

[laughing]

[Olori] ...a decision
that haunted them every day,

because it kept them away
from another sacred duty...

[Dara sobbing quietly]

[Olori] ...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... ?

[Olori] As they say,

when two elephants fight,

it is the grass that suffers.

[Ina] 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.

[distant calling]

- Shh!
- What is it?

[Aiye] There...

we found them.

[villagers calling]

We got your signal,
and are here to rescue you.

Something is wrong.

We are sorry.

We had no choice.

[gasping]

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.

[Fallen One] Is that so?

[Ina] We will slay you
where you stand!

[Fallen One] No, Ina...

for once again you have proven

that The Divine Ones' affinity
for wretched humans

will be the end of them all.

[mammoth bellowing]

[horses screaming]

[coughing]

[shrieking and bellowing]

[groaning]

[gasping]

[grunting with impact]

[mammoth bellowing]

[Ina] 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.

- [Aiye] One of us can.
- [Fallen One chuckling cruelly]

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.

[Ologun shouting battle cries]

[Aiye] Eleda...

grant me the strength...

You wouldn't dare.

[Dark Ologun shouting]

[?]

[screaming cry]

[explosion]

[rumbling]

[grunting and struggling]

[screaming]

[?]

[roaring]

[grunting with effort]

Forgive my inaction, my love,

but this was the only choice
that could save them.

[Agidi]
Forgive my intrusion, Ajagun,

but there is a matter
of utmost importance

I wish to discuss with you.

[Ishe] 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.

[Ishe] 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.

[The Fallen One] All the years

you lot spent
coddling the humans

have made you weak.

You may be Divine Ones,

but you are not warriors.

[growling]

[Fallen One] 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.

[Joba]
Not while I still draw breath.

[?]

[Fallen One] 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.

[growling]

[Joba] 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?

[Joba] ...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.

[sobbing in grief]

And if I go with him?

[Joba] In that moment,

she knew that she would have
to trade her life for yours.

I didn't kill your mother.

Your hubris did.

[The Fallen One] 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!

[beasts and warriors roaring]

[screaming]

[shouting in protest]

[roaring]

[gasping]

[crying out]

Protect her at all costs.

The Chosen is salvation.

[?]

[screaming] No!

I will... resist!

[roaring]

[?]

[Ekun growling curiously]

Ekun, no!

Mother said
we must remain here!

[Ishe] 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!

[The Fallen One]
"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.

[?]

[growling]

[screaming battle cry]

[grunting with impact]

[groaning]

[grunting with impact]

Hunh!

[shouting battle cries]

[growling]

[straining]

[Ishe] Let her go!

[shouting]

Hup... unh!

[groaning]

[grunting]

Unh!

[straining]

[crying out]

[grunting with impact]

[crying out]

[roaring]

[screaming]

[grunting with impact]

[both groaning in pain]

[screaming]

[rumbling]

[growling]

H'yah!

[growling] Raah!

[sonic boom]

[crashing]

[grunting and screaming
with impact]

[groaning in pain]

[gasping in terror]

[grunting with impact]

Huh? [gasping]

[snarling]

[growling]

We cannot win this fight.

[Joba's voice]
It is not your battle to win.

But she can.

[Ekun snarling in battle]

Know that my heart
only ever belonged to you.

Until we
meet again, my love.

Until we meet again, my love.

[Fallen One roaring]

[growling]

Dara!

[roaring]

Not in this lifetime!

Unfortunate choice of words.

[roaring]

[grunting with impact]

[gasping for breath]

[?]

[panting]

[chuckling cruelly]

[?]

[explosion, Dara sobbing]

[snarling]

Rah!

[Fallen One]
Vile creature...

you and all the animals
of this land

will be my instruments
of destruction!

Haunting humanity
for generations!

[animals snarling]

[people gasping and screaming]

[snarling viciously]

[roaring]

[?]

Mother!

Mother...

Where is Father?

Remember the evil man
I spoke to you about?

The Falling Man?

[chuckling] 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.

[screaming in grief]

[sobbing]

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.

[laughing cruelly]

Huh?

[Dara screaming]
For my husband!

For my daughter!

Your time is done!

[screaming with effort]

[muffled shouting]

No!

[?]

May you emerge from the land
to save it...

[whispering] ...Chosen.

[?]

[Olori] 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.

[Iyanu] Mother...

[crying]

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.

[?]

? You are, you are ?

? Iwo ni o ?

save us from danger ?

You are, you are ?

? You are, you are, you are ?

? You are
You are, you are ?
