There are three main rewards you can get from finding Sad Bear:
- 15 XP

- The Amulet of Silvanus
When you find Halsin and help him return to the Grove, you can tell Sad Bear. He will get really happy and you will finish an unmarked quest that will award you 15 XP.
Ormn will periodically throw fish on the ground as he catches them, which means you can pick them up and use them for long rests.
Otherwise, there is a nearby rock which you can lift to find the Amulet of Silvanus. This Amulet will give you the ability to cast Lesser Restoration free once every long rest. Lesser Restoration is a Level 2 spell that cures a creature from disease, poison, paralysis, or blindness.
