For the first time, panic swept through the townsfolk. Not without reason, as a danger alarm had sounded throughout the entire town. It was a special bell that would ring when triggered by one of several bells at each of the main entrance gates to the town, and from the sound, they could discern the direction of the problem.
"W-what's happening now?"
"I don't know... is it an event?"
The adventurers, rising from their seats, disregarded the remnants of their unfinished meals on the table. "Whatever it is, let's go out and see what's happening," one suggested.
Not long after they had set foot in a town where they hadn't had social interactions for a while, they now had to face an unexpected event? This only fueled their excitement further; they were adventurers, after all.
