Prof. Foley's demise unleashes a magical plague to feed on and kill members of the Order. As the Knights brainstorm for a remedy, Kepler's efforts to replace and demote Vera through Invacare effectively distract temp Grand Magus Vera from helping. Meanwhile, Alyssa searches Vera's house for the Vade Maecum that she believes was not destroyed and has interrupted her powers; instead, she finds Salvador waiting to recruit her into Praxis.
