All of it transpired just like Mordret had predicted it would.
The name of the Dreamspawn spread like a plague, infecting people to make them hasten the spread even more. Changing Star and the Lord of Shadows scrambled to slow it down, but it was of no use.

Even if people answered yes, the seed of doubt was already planted in their minds. And that seed opened the gates of their hearts for the Dreamspawn to walk through.
At the same time, Changing Star and the Lord of Shadows hesitated to draw Asterion into an open battle because he was using all the people in Bastion as a shield.
