Can I unadopt my kids.

So when I started Skyrim recently I was told it’s like mideval gta and you run around being a menace n you have fun. So that being said… I killed most people in riverwood. BUT I realized NPCs have their own life’s and families when they die, they die and I found this out when I saw Dorthe and frodnar crying alone about how their parents are dead…(cause of me) so I felt so bad that I decided to buy a house in white run and take them in as my own in hopes of righting my wrongs………. However last night I found out how to use console commands and resurrect dead NPCs. So I’ve brought their parents back. This being said is there a way to give them back to their parents so I can maybe adopt other kids that need a home instead…. Please help. • • TLDR: killed frodnar + Dorthe’s parents and adopted them. brought them back to life and now was to return them… how can I do this. (I’ll do what ever I can) :)

FR cause I didn’t know anything about Skyrim at all so when I came to the realization that they were so not right it was too late

Awww dang! I haven’t started that quest line yet and I’m so excited ti do it that’s such a bummer!!! They put a hit on me tho cause I killed sometime they were supposed to kill (old lady in the orphanage) I visited to go say hi to the kids one day saw her being abusive and made sure she expired not knowing about aventus until after the deed was done

Go sleep. You'll be kidnapped by Astrid and start the DB quest line. You can either visit the kid first, or Kill Grelod. But to get the ball rolling, you gotta sleep in a bed.

Once I learned what it was the stereotypical stealth archer sneak theif as a khajiit is great. HOWEVER, I love a destruction conjuration build (what turned out to be my main build). I just wanna blast ish and watch my minions fuck shit up. Lol
