Synopsis:
Firestorm leads several of the Orisha against their shadow-selves in the land of Ife. Meanwhile, Shango tracks down Dr. Efraim Ngai who is the reincarnation of his brother Obatala. Nagi teaches Shango some humility then joins him in returning to Ife. Obatala makes peace with the shadow, who have a legitimate place in their world. The war is over. However, Firestorm's duplicate refuses to make peace. He names himself Shadowstorm and leaves to make his own life. Obatala then brings Firestorm back to Earth. Shango joins them as he attempts to continue his education on humanity.
