I chose flight

From what I remember of this dream, at one point I was wondering around a large building reminiscent of a school. It looked a little like my old secondary school (which has appeared in dreams before, albeit stretched out and warped in some way), only it was generally greyer and darker and had more floors.  

At one point, I ran up some stairs and found myself looking down an ominous dark corridor. Something told me I could continue down it, it would not be pleasant but I might learn something from it.  Instead, I decided to nope it out of there and go back down the stairs and run outside.

I then found myself in a large courtyard area that stretched out, with buildings and other roads to the right of me. It was daylight and the general feel of this new place was a lot more free and generally positive compared to that creepy corridor I avoided.  

I kept on running down the road in front of me and eventually took of, which turned this into another flying dream.  I past people as I flew, but unlike a lot of previous dreams, they waved and greeted me as I flew past.  People smiled at me and I even addressed some of them by name.  In the back of my mind (as I often think when I get these flying dreams), I wanted to ask where I was, but decided not to. One guy then told me "Have you heard? Ant is dead". It seemed significant, but I don't know anybody with that name.

I carried on flying and found myself in the countryside.  I flew over a ring shaped hedgerow and heard a woman's voice. I then landed with the intention of asking her where I was, but couldn't see anybody. On the ground I then saw what looked like a brown, almost rotten fish which I then identified as the source of the voice. This was the "woman" I heard.  She told me my name was Caroline, and as I was trying to talk to her, I suddenly woke up.
