Eventually they discovered that an underground water supply was being contaminated by coldfire, but it was too late and everyone already left the town. While waiting in a car with Irma, he asks her why she joined Headkeeper, and Irma gets happy that he got interested in her past and starts explaining she is a noble. However Innumael sees Leocadio Wöhler and Conrad Wisdom in plainclothes, and goes after him. Innumael overhears them talking to a neighbor, Faust, who is a doctor, and works in drug development for luminosis. Leocadio then meets with other imperial soldiers in disguise and comment that their info should be sure and Headkeepers raid should occur this night. Hearing that, Innumael runs back to Irma and tells her that the military knows and they must call off the operation. Leocadio reports to Helman that they spotted Innumael and Conrad is after him. Helman decides to go after him as well. Meanwhile, Innumael sees he is followed and hides in his former workplace in attempt to escape his pursuers.
