It's your favorite fantasy setting, but all sentient bipeds that exceed 4 feet tall have dropped dead.
How does the settings reform? How do the midgets explain the universal bisection of the tall ones?

>dwarves may be too tall, dunno.
>actual runts/midgets of a traditionally tall species survive, but not children that would otherwise grow to normal height

Well, that's a trainwreck.
A gnome is going to wish for the death of everyone that is taller than her. After her initial success, she seeks ways to make herself the shortest and thereby kill everything.
The BBEG must be stopped. How do you and your crack team of sentient rats save the world against such a monster?

Are we sapient though, because otherwise we just run around our cages/lair and maybe get killed by some "adventurer" half lings on their first quest.
