This, my friends, is a red herring.A red herring is defined as "a deliberate attempt to divert attention."
And that's what this sentence is: "The old magus actually timed out everyone's summer."
In fact . . . it doesn't mean anything. However, if you extract the first letter of each word in the sentence, you will see what the devious author was up to: T O M A T O E S

Greek mágos "magian"/Magician the older word for a practitioner of magic the term 'magus' acquired a negative connotation and was associated with tricksters and conjurers. This pejorative meaning survives in the words "magic" and "magician".
