DreamTime - Wow - what a great dream.
It seems you still have problems about accepting you are a multi-dimensional creature - and not just a physical body stuck in everyday rules and courtesies. But the new owner, a new part of you that is at home with merging everyplace you have ever been in your self and life into one clear insight, introduces you to a new way of being.
But you are still trained in the belief that things - in your dreams - do not belong to you. In fact everything in a dream belongs to you, and IS you. Have you read

It is the basic non-rational roots of our personality. Our psyche has its roots in such mythology, and the mythology gives some form to what lies beyond the rational mind and beyond form – perhaps beyond time and space. It is tempting to attempt reliving that mythology. We may even be trapped by it.
Remember you are multi-dimensional? You have a body, sexual feeling (another dimension =AD); emotions and love (AD); voice and self expression (AD); thought and insight (AD); and in the in the film Contact, Ellie, a scientist played by Jodie Foster, is being questioned about her disbelief in God by Palmer Joss, played by Matthew McConaughey. Ellie says to Palmer that there is no evidence for God scientifically, and that he cannot therefore prove his belief. She tells him she is looking for something tangible and provable. So Palmer very gently asks her if she loved her father who is now dead. Ellie, who in fact loved her father very deeply, says that yes, of course she did. Palmer then, again gently, asks her to prove it to him. Of course there was no scientific proof of what was a personal experience, a feeling. A demonstration of a great dimension.
Real in today's world? Most of humanity are locked in prisons in their own minds. They believe so deeply in fears, in religious beliefs that urge them to kill other people; in all manner of evil, and yet also continue to belief they are fee agents, and myths are fantasy!?
So what is your dreamed of mythic creature? It is a representation of all things we will face in our efforts to meet the challenges of life; and all the huge potential we all have that has not been accessed. So you are withdrawing in this dream from a great treasure. See
