My dear family, it is with a heavy heart (and small hands) that I write this letter. I've been turned into a five-year-old kid by a cursed artifact.

I didn't mean to touch it, really! But it was so shiny and pretty! And now, I'm stuck with this tiny body.

I've tried to reverse the curse, but my party members are no help. They're too serious, acting like big sticks in the mud.

I miss you all so much. My heart aches for mommy. I mean... my wife. I want to cuddle. I mean... kiss her.

And I want to play with my daughter. She's like a big sister now! I bet we would have a lot of fun together.

I also want to learn about swordfighting with my sons. They're like my brothers now! It's so confusing, but also quite fun.

I've been eating a lot of candy lately. It's just so sweet and yummy! I can't help it! I want more candy!

I've been trying to act mature and lead the party like I used to. But it's so hard when all I want to do is play.

I feel like I'm losing myself, becoming more and more childish. I'm sorry if this letter is hard to understand.

I miss being an adult. I miss being a father. I miss being a husband. I just want to come home.

I'm scared. I don't want to be a child forever. I want to grow up again. I want to be with you all.

But I'm also having a lot of fun. It's like a second childhood. I get to play and eat candy all day.

I hope you all can understand my situation. I promise I'm trying my best to return to my normal self.

Please wait for me. I will come back. I will become an adult again. I will become your husband and father again.

I love you all very much. Even though I'm a child now, my love for you all hasn't changed.

I miss you all. I hope we can be together soon. Until then, please take care of yourselves.

Now, I have to go. The others are calling me. They want me to stop writing and start playing.

I hope this letter reaches you safely. And I hope you understand my situation. I will write again soon.

Until then, please remember that I love you all. Even if I'm a child, my love for you all remains the same.

Goodbye for now. I hope to see you all soon. Until then, please take care of yourselves.

And please, don't forget about me. Even if I'm a child, I'm still me. I'm still your husband. I'm still your father.

I will fight this curse. I will return to my normal self. I will come back to you all. Just wait for me.

I love you all very much. I miss you all. I hope we can be together soon. Until then, goodbye.

PS: Please send more candy. I've run out and the others won't give me any more. They say it's not good for me.

PPS: I promise to brush my teeth after eating the candy. I know it's important. I don't want to get cavities.

PPPS: I love you all. I miss you all. Please wait for me. I will come back soon.
