(Never dealt with a dead hero in D&D how does this work)
Usually the person rolls up a new character (which I have done). The party may want to loot the dead party member for equipment, magical items and such.
(You should be able to see dawn's character sheet at https://ddb.ac/characters/2249880/HCid25 to pick out any equipment you want to bring with you. If that link doesn't work, I can post what he has in here)
Angered and grieving at the loss of your companion, the party takes what you think you might need from Dawn's fallen form, resolved to press on and make sure his sacrifice was not in vain. As the adrenaline rush from the fight starts to subside and you search Dawn's body, you notice you hear barking from nearby. Looking in the direction it's coming from, you can just see a number of cages lined up along the wall with mastiffs inside, which have been riled up. Upon closer inspection, you realize that one of hte cages is actually holding a small humanoid figure instead of a mastiff. A short distance ahead of you, just past the fallen fungi is a side-path branches off from the path you are on, heading towards the cages.
Pops will take the, Oil, the thieves tools, Mondath's Key, and The Dragon cult Regalia. He will disrespectfully marvel at the craftsmanship and iconography of the Regalia, forgetting himself.
Following the side-path, you approach the cages. There are 4 large cages lined up side-by-side against the wall. Three of them contain mastiffs that continue to bark at you, while the fourth one, on the end, is instead occupied by a halfling.
Snippet is a halfling with bright blue eyes and dusty brown hair. He looks like he has been breathing in the fungus spores for a long time, trapped in this cage.
Seeing the big goliath approach he cowers in fear.
“You are free, we lost one of our own not moments ago in this place. You are welcome to join us if you wish and want to try and take this place back driving out the invaders or just leave , the choice is yours. “
Rock will then go back and open the chest to see what is inside

"I have been living in these mountains for a couple of years, studying the ways of the Druid. I was deep in my mediations when all of a sudden I was seized and put in this cage. Luckily my three friends..." I point at the three mastiffs. "...were close by." So saying I go over to the other cages and release the dogs, abd after spending a few minutes with they head over to the chest (where the cultists put my equipment and taking out the mastiffs saddlebags and armor start putting thing away. I put on hide armor on two of the mastiffs, saying "These are Shadow and Misty". The I put the saddlebags on the third mastiff and name her Rosie. Making sure all my equipment and kits (Alchemist's Supplies, Poisoner, Herbalism, and Healing kits) are still in working order, I pack Rosie's bags and my bbackpac. Stowing my boomerang to my belt and my blowgun in it's arm sheath, I pick up my staff and say "Yes, I will accompany you at least until we have cleared these invaders out of my mountain. What do you know about them?"
They worship some dragon and want to bring them back, collecting a treasure horde for some reason. They were raiding the nearby town and this was their base. We tracked them when most of them left and came back to investigate what was behind.

(I'll let flyingmatthew describe the halfling)
Snippet is a halfling with bright blue eyes and dusty brown hair. He looks like he has been breathing in the fungus spores for a long time, trapped in this cage.

Hello there, are you a prisoner here?
Assuming there is a lock on the cage rock will look around for some keys

Snippet looks at the big man with mixed apprehension and hope as he answers that yes he is being held captive in his own mountains no less!
"Your mountains you say? From what clan do you hail?"
I got alot a doods
At the opposite end of the cages from the halfling you find a key hanging on a hook on the wall. A chest sits on the ground as well
Rock will pick up the keys leaving the chest alone for the moment as he is going to try and unlock the cage for the prisoner
