You want them to know after the dream that it's a fight they have to avoid because it's one they can't win rather than have them thinking, "if we were more powerful or did x differently, we would own that fight."You could invite the players to roll up higher level versions of their characters for the dream sequence...So here's another question: why do they have to avoid the fight? Is it just that it's too tough for them, are they needed elsewhere, or is it the epicenter of some catastrophic event that destroys everything around it?Just a thought--you mention that the dragonborn go from being allies to antagonists after this point in the future. Perhaps there is some catastrophic event that this dream foretells, and this event is what inspires the shift in the philosophy of the dragonborn. Maybe other "allies" betray the dragonborn here with some sort of arcane conflagration in an attempt to stunt the growth of their empire (or something), a plan which backfires in that it instead turns them into a powerful new enemy...</blockquote>
