In E/Ω, the generic truth mono ⊤:1↪Ω defines a quasi-closed Boolean subtopos. Its composite to E is surjective. If a predicate p(x) pulled back from E becomes dense, then ((p(x)⇒u)⇒u)=1 for the generic truth u. Substitution u=p(x) yields p(x)=1, proving reflection of invertible monos and hence faithfulness.
