[Unfortunately for Sieghart, this bear is a main character. There are a lot of mysteries to unlock in this bear. A lot of them are bad. It is truly unfortunate to come across it in the wild, for Reasons.
One reason: it's abnormally intelligent for a bear! What is up with the weirdly smart animals in this world? Who knows. As Sieghart slides off the ledge, gripping the child and bag with one hand and holding onto the ledge itself with the other, the bear does not comically keep running into thin air and then drop down into the water below. It actually stops short, swinging its head from side to side. From this close, Sieghart will be able to see that its eyes appear completely scarred over. Rather than looking, it seems to be sniffing the air.
Whatever the hell it's smelling, its senses guide it to "look" directly toward where Sieghart's dangling, though. With its mighty paws and hellacious claws, it moves over to try stomping on Sieghart's hand before trying to lean over the edge to get in a swipe. All the while, that child is absolutely wailing. He, too, will need ye olde therapy when this is over.]
