If you'd like, you can go read my http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1285113-resurrection-spell/ real quick, although it's a bit long.
Long story short: My wife died somehow during an adventure. I brought her back as a minion using Dead Thrall. Killed her once again in my house. Took all the stuff off of the corpse except the wedding ring. Dragged the corpse on top of the bed and left her there for 2 days in real life time.
So.. to continue the story..
I came home from adventuring one day and went to my loot chest to deposit stuff and noticed that Njadas corpse was gone. Gone? I was panicking.. I didn't even know that corpses disappeared in houses! I ran downstairs to see if the corpse of my housecarl was still around (I shoved it into a corner in my alchemy room), and his corpse was still there (flipped upside-down in a hilarious fashion). I didn't know what to make of this.. so I went out on a whim and headed to the companions guild to see if Njada was there. At first I checked downstairs and the dining hall, didn't see her.. but then I remembered there's a courtyard. As soon as I walk outside I see her sitting there at a table. WHAT? SHE'S ALIVE? Njada lives! How? She was dead. Dead for many many in-game hours and then just randomly comes back to life? The strange thing was that when I spoke to her, she wasn't talking like she was still my wife.. but she still had the wedding ring I left on her (and nothing else).
So.. I came to the conclusion that this was a miracle. There's so many Skyrim gods that I forget their names.. who do I thank for this? :woot:
Now all Bethesda has to do is add in the patch that allows you to get re-married! :celebration:
