800 years ago, the Queen unleashed the Black Plague to wipe out humanity and killed Kaulder's family, but he was able to defeat her. Before she met her end, the Queen cursed Kaulder with eternal life.
In the present day, Kaulder prevents a teenage witch from unintentionally destroying an airplane. Kaulder is revealed to be working as a witch hunter for an organization called the Axe and Cross, which aims to keep the truce between humans and witches and either executes or imprisons the witches who break the law. He is aided by a priest called "Dolan".
The 36th Dolan tells Kaulder that he is retiring from his duties and has chosen a new Dolan to for him. The former apparently dies in his sleep that night. Kaulder and the 37th Dolan deduce that 36 was murdered by a witch. While tracking down the witch, Kaulder finds traces of old dark magic, not seen since after he killed the Queen. It is revealed that 36 is not dead but rather under a dark magic spell that can only be broken if the witch that cast it is killed.
Using clues that 36 left behind, Kaulder goes to a witch bar, owned by Chloe and Miranda, to buy a memory spell to help him remember how he died and came back. Chloe eventually agrees to give the spell. During the process of reliving Kaulder's memory, the bar is attacked by a witch, the same one who cursed the 36th Dolan. He later attacks Chloe at her apartment, though Kaulder saves her by pulling her through a portal into his own apartment. Dolan the 37th and Kaulder work together to determine the hostile witch's name - Baltasar Ketola, though he goes by Belial. Shortly after, Kaulder convinces Chloe to try to make him another memory potion, but since Belial destroyed her stash at her club, she needs to visit Miranda's warehouse. After it is discovered that the plant they are there for hasn't sprouted yet and the rest of it's kind stolen by Belial, Kaulder and Chloe discover Miranda's body as Belial taunts them through a phone call from Miranda's phone. Chloe then agrees (with less hesitation than when she was in his apartment) to help Kaulder get what he needs to kill him.
In order to get the rare ingredient to create another memory spell, they visit Danique. However, Danique drugs Kaulder with an endless memory dream and is revealed to be planning to lock him away forever. Chloe, revealed to be a dream-walker, is able to free his mind and the pair escapes. Kaulder asks Chloe to enter his mind and pull out the memory. He discovers that, though the Queen's body burned to ash, the first Dolan decided to spare her heart in order to save Kaulder from the related pain. His immortality is revealed to be tied to the Queen's heart, and if it were to die, Kaulder would lose his immortality or die completely. They deduce that 36 was attacked because he knew of where the heart was hidden and was tortured into revealing its location. They also realize that Belial's real plan is to revive the Queen.
Leaving Chloe and 37 behind, Kaulder goes to face Belial and the Queen to prevent her from returning. Though he kills Belial in a confrontation, Belial had already revived the Queen, who then steals back Kaulder's immortality. 36, who is recovering, encourages Kaulder to continue fighting.
The members of the Witch Council, which is holding the Witches' Prison, are killed and the Queen plans to enact another plague curse using the imprisoned witches as a coven, since even the Witch Queen isn't powerful enough to cast it. Using her dream walking ability, Chloe manages to kill one of the weakest prisoners, severing the connection of the Queen to the prisoners and temporarily stalling her plan. Kaulder fights the Queen, and appears close to killing her, until 37 attacks him with grudge against Kaulder for killing his witch parents. He asks the Queen to give him magical power. She states that despite her power, "clay cannot be turned to gold", suggesting that she cannot imbue Dolan the 37th with magic, and kills him, before turning to Chloe and linking her mind to complete the connection between the witches for the plague curse to form again. Kaulder manages to summon a thunderstorm (using the weather runes he confiscated from the young witch on the plane) and throws his sword into the Queen, burning her to ash. Kaulder prepares to kill both the Queen's heart and him; but Chloe dissuades him, stating that there were things in the darkness worse than the Witch Queen.
36 agrees to delay his retirement and stay by Kaulder's side. Chloe does as well, and the three form a new team, free from the Axe and Cross. The heartbeat of the Queen is heard within Kaulder's weapon stash in his apartment.
