This Hero Delivers The Package!

I stepped through the doorway while flexing every muscle I could. I was prepared for the torrent of dwarves that would attempt to sweep me off my feet. Tael and Erana were holding on to me to ensure they wouldn't get swept away while Kany was latched once more on to my shoulders. As my feet hit the solid stone flooring of the exterior of the inn, I could feel the hard ground as I shifted my weight onto it.

…

Nothing's happening.

Where are the dwarves? Nobody's here!

I turned to look to my left and my right. The street was entirely clear of anyone. It was as if this place had been abandoned suddenly. From the noises the rest of my party was making, I could tell that they were also uncertain.

"W-What's going on? Did they all disappear or something?" Kany whispered to me.

"I don't know…" I turned towards the interior of the inn and saw the dwarf at the counter fiddling with his fingernails. He hadn't disappeared and it doesn't seem like he's concerned at all.
