Then I would take note more on what was happening in the dream. Like I said, people... or creatures most often are just symbols.

IDK how you can have a dream where even you aren't in it. I'm thinking that maybe you were an observer. Pay attention to your feelings during the dream and try to get in touch with feelings from the resent or not so recent past when you are awake... or feelings that the dream brought up.

Journal you dreams so later you can go back and re-read the dream. Things might fall into place then.

Have you done any more reading on the dream site? I would.
