The space between the cart and the doors is narrow; it is unlikely the dragonborn can fit in, but it's just a squeeze for the humans.
Jack makes it to the door, by now you can hear people whimpering. As the door is unlocked and opened, the cries of distress become clearer as the entrance just leads into the interiors of the storekeep which lies in sheer darkness...
Simple enough. While it involves some unglamorous leaning with a twist of a tough latch, hinting the weight the cart bears, the brakes are turned off the cart.
Kava moves over to the women and kneels down beside her. "You have a choice," she says quietly. "Come with us and I promise you they cant hurt you anymore."
Toh goes up and knocks on the door. "Hello in there. Any chance we can just avoid all the screaming and wailing and just get on to the point where you thank us for coming to your rescue and we complete our mission from the Castellan?"

While the woman's eyes rest on the bindings on her wrists, her vision is elsewhereas she quietly talks, "The things I have done to people... innocent people. It already hurts." She looks to Kava, but her eyes are caught at Toh's and Jack's investigating and fiddling. "You all have to be careful; they've laid an ambush..."
Tohcan hear the cries ease off to silence after his reach around knock.
It's still heavy for Jackto do it alone. Someone is more than able to give him a hand.
She turns back to the women, "You don't think I haven't?" she looks around to make sure no one else was looking at her, before pulling out a cracked and tarnished symbol. "This is my reminder. My reminder that no matter how many people they make us hurt, we can still walk away. No matter how much they think they have a hold over us. It still hurts, I don't think that it'll ever stop hurting for me. But here, now, you can make sure that it doesn't hurt you anymore. Come with us, let me help you. And I will make sure that they don't hurt you. Please."
Tohhas seen Jackfiddle with the wagon that blocks the obvious way. The way he forces himself around the wagon its clear is far too heavy for him too handle alone.
Ophelia bends down to pick up a rock, before producing some phosphorescent moss from the pouch at her hip. She rubs the moss on the rock, making it light up as well as any torch, and then throws it into the depths of the storekeep.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
As Opheliathrows in the rock aglow. Tohand Jackwould see it knock against some of the boxes and land on the floor, following by the sound of thrown missiles letting loose and embedding themselves into wooden containers or clanging onto stone floor.
"Fools! Get them!"
The storekeep would flare up with light as torches flash to life revealing the cultists!
Jack will try to get inside.

The cart is on wheels, but they are locked in place. Although with a little test, you find the load of boxes are extremely heavy.
Can I unlock the wheels on the cart?

Toh has seen Jack fiddle with the wagon that blocks the obvious way. The way he forces himself around the wagon its clear is far too heavy for him too handle alone.
"Well I'm quite sure you have more chance of moving it than me..." Ophelia nods to Toh in the direction of the cart.
Toh nods and wedges himself under the back of the cart, pushing hard.

As Toh tenses, it gives an impression of the immense weight as the cart is slowly shifted out the way for all to enter the dark storekeep...
"Very well. But..." The human woman picks her weapon up, "I won't be a complete liability to you all. I'm Velsa." She gives Kava a nod.

Jack holds up a shushing finger and starts tiptoeing into the building trying to suppress a giggle.
The same feminine voice calls out to each of them within their minds “ready or not, here I come.”

"Kava," Kava smiles. "Thank you Velsa."
