How hittade alla om Shadows dröm?

I kapitel 11 av Neil Gaimans amerikanska gudar blir Mr. Wednesday mycket upprörd att Shadow gav bort sin plats till alla när han skulle gömma sig i Lakeside.

“What do you think is the fucking point of stashing you in a hiding place like Lakeside, if you're going to raise such a ruckus that not even a dead man could miss it?”

“I dreamed of thunderbirds …” said Shadow. “And a tower. Skulls …” It seemed to him very important to recount his dream.

“I know what you were dreaming. Everybody damn well knows what you were dreaming. Christ almighty. What's the point in hiding you, if you're going to start to fucking advertise?”

Detta bekräftas tydligen i kapitel 12.

[…] “Tell me your dream,” said Whiskey Jack.

Shadow said, “I was climbing a tower of skulls. There were huge birds flying around it. They had lightning in their wings. They were attacking me. The tower fell.”

“Everybody dreams,“ said Wednesday. “Can we hit the road?”

“Not everybody dreams of the Wakinyau, the thunderbird,” said Whiskey Jack. “We felt the echoes of it here.”

“I told you,” said Wednesday. “Jesus.”

Allt detta verkar konstigt, för drömmar är normalt privata för den som drömmer den.

Var herr onsdag rätt, eller överdrev han? Hur fick alla plötsligt reda på Shadows dröm och hans plats? Vad gjorde Shadow som väckte allas uppmärksamhet?
