After watching him for a moment , I said to Julan , " Stay back here a ways . I 'll be right back . " He looked at me with a questioning expression but did not protest as I stepped away from him and followed the red - haired Dunmer .

Question: Why did they tell Julan to stay back ?
Answer: They did n't want Julan to follow .They did n't want Julan to see anything .They did n't want to be with Julan .They did n't want Julan around the Dunmer .
