He did, and she reached, found Julian and began speaking to him.
Shortly, Luke was party to the conversation, explaining what he intended to

Trump nexus. This was because I had summoned my Logrus Sight and had become
sensitive to such things. I needed it for the timing, not wanting Luke
whisked away before I could move.
I let my hand fall upon his shoulder and I moved forward as he did.
"Merlin! What are you doing?" I heard Vialle call.
"I'd like to see what happens," I said. "I'll come right home when
things are concluded," and the rainbow gate closed behind me.
We stood within the flickering of oil lamps inside a large tent. From
outside, I couild hear the wind and the sounds of stirring branches. Julian
stood facing us. He let Luke's hand fall and regarded him without
expression.
"So you are Caine's killer," he said.
"I am," Luke replied.
And I was remembering that Caine and Julian had always been
particularly close
