[RPG] Leomund’s Tiny Hut — only the caster can’t exit and enter at will

dnd-5espells

The text for Leomund's tiny hut says in part:

Creatures and objects within the dome when you cast this spell can
move through it freely.

but also

The spell ends if you leave its area.

I read that as saying that everyone can exit and enter at will, except the caster, who must remain inside the hut for the entire time. Is that correct?

Best Answer

Yes you are correct

A 10-foot-radius immobile dome of force springs into existence around and above you and remains stationary for the duration. The spell ends if you leave its area.

This paragraph solely focuses on what happens when the spell is cast including when it ends. The dome ends after 8 hours or when you leave it.

Nine creatures of Medium size or smaller can fit inside the dome with you. The spell fails if its area includes a larger creature or more than nine creatures. Creatures and objects within the dome when you cast this spell can move through it freely....

This paragraph (and the omitted part) references what happens to the things and creatures inside the dome.
