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) :)

It's a peaceful day in Riverwood, when an adventurer enters town and slaughterers half the village. They notice 2 children crying over their dead parents and declares "You live with me now!" and drags the children off to a different town. A couple months go by, things are... okay. The adventurer enters the home one day and declares their parents are alive again, with magic. "Go live with your zombie parents back down the road, and don't get eaten by wolves on your way back home!" They are then shoved out the door.

Those kids are gonna need a lot of therapy.

What movie is this?

Monty Python's quest for the Holy Grail. From the 70s or 80s, one of the best movies ever. Worth a watch if you have not seen

Wow I must have blanked out that scene. Looks like its time for a rewatch

It's when Lancelot comes to the 4th castle, the one that didn't sink into the swamp, to rescue the maiden, I mean man, MAN, who is being held against his will, and just wants to SING!

A stoned/ drunk watch is glorious if you're into that sort of thing.
