Could just refer to Nick taking Adalind and the kids and Sean becoming the family outsider. But not sure if Sean would really go to much effort to get them back if BC is out of the picture.
I am thinking Nick would become Sean to make sure Adalind left because she had to and not because as a hexenbiest she felt working with BC was a better bet. Remember she all of a sudden goes back to her old company. She also hides about her powers. She only leaves him a not when she leaves. Plus she has a history of showing one thing but having an ulterior motive.
Sean went on stage showing his family. If they all of a sudden disappear before he is sworn in, That could be a problem.
Why would Adalind work for BC? She doesn't even want to be married to a guy she used be in love with who now works for BC.
She hid her powers because she was afraid Nick would kick her out because she associates her powers with being evil since she did bad things to Nick and his friends because of them.
She left him because she felt she was given no choice, Conrad threatened Kelly, Diana pretended to be Renard to push her over the edge and act instead of waiting any longer. Adalind was figuratively dragged away, she didn't leave willingly.
It could be a problem for the new mayor but I doubt Nick or Adalind give two flying figs about Renard's reputation for lying about his so called family. Diana is his child, that can't be disproved but Kelly is not his and Adalind's not his friend/girlfriend/fiance/wife. She owes him nothing. She's more likely to let him stew over the mess he's made of his campaign to win votes because he's liar. The truth needs to come out about that. I'd rather watch that than Sean playing at being the good mayor when he didn't even earn that position.

I just hope the writers can convincingly write a story about the stick, its powers (good & evil) and the consequences of using it or else those seven knights were trolling going through all that trouble to hide it from the greedy/power hungry royals. Changing Nick's personality is a good place to start.
My question is it going to be a case of misuse or is it that any use is what causes the problem. To me it would be hard to explain why there is a stick that can cure but doing so causes a negative consequence. What would make since is the consequence is based on the users motives. So far each use has been a selfless act. Now if he uses it to get Adalind back then that would be a self serving act. If he uses on Adalind because she is in danger being with Sean then that would be selfless. If it is because she wants to leave Sean that would be self serving.
With Monroe and Eve they where dying. Saving them was not for Nick's benefit plus they did not ask. Nick healing himself was not a conscious act plus he was sacrificing himself for others.

He saved Monroe, his friend, from dying. It's a selfless act that can be self serving (perhaps that was Monroe's time and he could have altered the future by that act alone, who knows). Saving someone from a curse isn't more self serving just because it's not death (but if she turns to stone when the ring comes off or her children end up hurt, using the stick could be akin to saving her life and maybe the little ones' lives). It's a curse, not a natural state for people to live in and thus it must be broken. He'd do it for any other person, it's just that like Monroe, he has a pre-existing relationship with her.
I think the consequence comes in using the stick altogether, whether for good or evil, Nick is almost changing "fate" by using it, like how they say magic comes with a price. For every time he uses the stick, a price must be paid. We don't know what that price is and we won't know until magic comes to collect and it will/should start with the one using the stick. Nick cured Monroe, he cured Juliette, he cured himself and now he may cure Adalind. There's already a pattern here....
The most easily imaginable "accidental" bad consequence of the stick would be if it "heals" all of Juliette/Eve's "damage," and that turns out to include HW's mental conditioning as well as her wounds from the fight with Conrad. Which would turn her back into the Juliette hexenbiest who was determined to kill Adalind and ended up betraying Nick and his mother. If that version of her sees Nick reuniting with Adalind and bringing Kelly and Diane home with her...

That would suck for Juliette, returning her to her vengeful, bitter, angry hexenbiest self. It's rumoured that Adalind might go back to being her evil self because of Nick using the stick, so anything is possible at this stage.

If I track this right how you use the stick may mean what the kickback is? We know the knights wanted to be able to get it back but included a warning. The writes left out the down side so they can write it anyway the want. So the how may be the important question.
