Abeyoni was a poor land that could not prosper, and this kept Ifá Fore, an awó who lived there with his son Ifá She, very uneasy. Once the young man told him he wanted to set out on a journey to find the fortune of them both and that of the region. This bothered the father so much that he punished him.
Ifá She cried until he fell asleep, and in his dream Orunmila visited him. He told him to offer him a white hen and a black one, with their heads, and to pluck them in front of him while singing a song. A storm would rise from the plucked feathers; after it he would find his good luck and also that of his people, and also the place where he was meant to settle, which would be called Ifá Bi Ashe.
On waking, startled, the young man went to the yard for the hens. His father caught him and became irritated again. Ifá She told him about the dream, but the father called him a liar. Right away he lay down to sleep under the poplar in the yard. Taking advantage of this, Ifá She handed the birds with their heads to Orunmila. Eshu appeared to tell him that it was not yet time to leave and began to sing. At that moment the storm arose, lifted Ifá and carried him off together with Eshu, while the father was left dead. It was impossible to stop against so much wind, so Ifá She went on with his Ifá and Eshu sang along the way. At one point he asked him not to look back, because the storm had left that land clean.
When they reached Shangó's house, Ifá She knelt to greet him. Shangó asked him to leave his Ifá and his board on the ground, since in three days he would perform a ceremony for him; meanwhile they would share amala, ila and ishu, the only thing he had to treat him with. Once seated at the table, Ifá She kept thinking about his father. Shangó calmed him: his destiny was set, and all of that had to happen so that he could bring fortune to his land.
When the three days had passed, Ifá She was calmer. Shangó announced that he would join him to the luck his father should have passed on to him, so that it would always go with him. He performed the ceremony with him and summoned the Egun of the father. On appearing, the Egun declared that all his luck would belong to Ifá She, in addition to that of Orunmila, that of Shangó and that of Eshu, and that to keep it he would have to consult deeply with Orunmila. During the rite, Shangó sang to make the call. When the offering to the Egun was finished, they prepared a clay jar with its load and fed it together with Ifá. With this the great storm settled: the feathers scattered in the air and fell in the land of Inle Toka.
The Oshas lived there, and among them Olorun, who was waiting for an awó to lead the place. Shangó told Ifá She to head with Eshu toward the land that could be seen in the distance, where he would live well. He promised to visit him later and told him that there he would find his mother, Abeyoni, who had power in that place and would support him.
Ifá She obeyed. Olokun had already informed Abeyoni that her son, an awó, would arrive, so that she would give him support. The first to enter was Eshu. Abeyoni, with a calabash in her hand, remarked to Olokun that she saw Eshu coming. Olokun replied that her son was coming too, but she could not see him. The two sang and, suddenly, Ifá She was there. He bowed down before his mother, and Olokun noticed the feathers scattered everywhere. Ifá She placed his Ifá in Abeyoni's hands, while Eshu and Olokun gathered the feathers to make the ebbó.
Abeyoni put her son in the middle of the land he was going to rule, surrounded by the crowd, and told him that without Shangó's presence he had no voice or authority. She sent Eshu for Shangó, so that he would witness everything, since thanks to him Ifá She had been lucky enough to find her. She also announced that he would govern several lands because he would have to travel, but that this one was his. Eshu left at once, and meanwhile the inhabitants did something so that Ifá would stay and live there.
Shangó returned with Eshu and ordered Ifá She to make ebbó with earth for all the people. A wind rose and the people began to gather the earth and the leaves out of the air. Ifá She carried out the ebbó. Then Abeyoni gathered Shangó, Eshu and Olokun under a poplar and spoke to her son: she knew it pained him that they were apart, since she had quarreled with his father. She told him what had happened: she had to leave and walk, and she always wanted to have him near, but the father refused, so that the son would know hardship. She told him that this rich land, visited by all the Oshas she governs and who trust her so much, had been his father's; he scorned it and went to die in another place, and now it belonged to Ifá She.
Then thunder rumbled, a wind passed and a voice asked for forgiveness and said that its luck was his.
Shangó consecrated him and prepared an inshe for him. From that day the good fortune of Ifá She began, Iwori Bogbe.
