	******** Spoiler Warning ********
	
Perhaps Luke/Rinaldo used Corwin's pattern, which appeared to have power
even in the original Amber multiverse.  That pattern is unlikely to be
so heavily watched as the main Amber pattern.  If he later destroyed
Corwin's pattern (out of spite for his father's death) this would
explain Corwin's insanity.

In any case, though, Brand had the power to move anywhere in shadow in
an instant. It is possible that brand had a trump for the Amber pattern
as well.  In either case,  Brand could easily have gotten into the
pattern with Rinaldo for the time needed to walk the pattern.  As I
remember, the Pattern room was well below dungeon level in Amber, and
very seldom entered.
