Why would the Pelerines have anything to do with the Atrium of Time?

Catherine had escaped from them---not to them---so why would she go 
there afterward?

What good is a secret that neither we nor the narrator can guess?

Who would have allowed Catherine to escape there when all the signs 
point to her death by beheading?

Severian knows the Atrium---why does he run there to marry Valeria 
without once stopping by to see his mother?

Mannea is yet another Pelerine named after a saint who was beheaded.
