In the 1820s, the Kingdom of Dahomey (located in modern-day Benin) is under the rule of King Ghezo.

Ignoring Nanisca’s orders to stay back, Nawi joins a reconnaissance mission to scout the Oyo forces. The mission goes wrong, and several Agojie, including Nawi and Izogie, are captured by the Oyo and taken to a slave port to be sold to the Portuguese. Tensions rise when a group of Portuguese slave

Tensions rise when a group of Portuguese slave traders, led by Santo Ferreira and accompanied by the half-Dahomean Malik, arrive to buy slaves from the Oyo. Malik is drawn to Nawi, and she learns from him that the Oyo are planning a massive attack on Dahomey.

Nawi is fiercely independent and questions the strict rules of the Agojie, particularly the vow of celibacy and the ban on having children. During her training, she learns that General Nanisca has a dark past. Years earlier, Nanisca was captured by the Oyo, raped, and held prisoner. She later gave birth to a child but gave the baby away, marking the infant's shoulder with a permanent scar to identify her if they ever crossed paths again. As Nawi and Nanisca grow closer, Nanisca discovers a scar on Nawi's shoulder and realizes that Nawi is her biological daughter.

The victorious warriors return to the Dahomey capital. King Ghezo, recognizing Nanisca's bravery and leadership despite her defiance, crowns her "The Woman King"—the female co-ruler of Dahomey. Nanisca and Nawi privately acknowledge their mother-daughter bond, and the kingdom celebrates its freedom and the end of its participation in the slave trade.
