Are you saying you agree Adalind took Nick's Grimm out of revenge for taking Diana?No, absolutely not. Adalind didn't know Nick or the others were even involved when she took Nick's Grimm. She believed Renard when he told her he had to give Diana to Viktor to keep her and himself safe from the Royals.
Because Adalind believed Kelly had left Portland - alone - and couldn't help her get Diana back, she called Viktor and begged him to let her see Diana.
Viktor pretended he actually had Diana, and agreed that Adalind could see her if she took Nick's Grimm.
At that point, Adalind was angry with Renard and if she wanted revenge, it would have been against Renard - not Nick.
So no, Adalind didn't take Nick's Grimm for revenge. She did it so Viktor would allow her to see Diana. If Renard hadn't lied about giving Diana to Viktor, Adalind would not have called Viktor.
If Renard had instead lied that the Resistance came to Portland and took Diana by force, Adalind wouldn't have had any options because she didn't know how to reach anyone in the Resistance.
I'm still not following your logic here. If Adalind didn't take Nick's grimm for revenge why did she tell him she did it because he took Diana?
What's written by Robyn and others are quiet clear tbh. Not sure how clearer it could be. Adalind was not seeking revenge on Nick, she had no idea about the scoobies playing a role with Diana's dissapearance.
The Royals simply needed the Grimm out of thier way dead and done, and had been since S1 as they always saw him to be a threat and a bigger threat being an ally with Saun. So what better way but to use Adalind.
Adalind once again found herself all alone, hatred for Saun for what he did even after she ran to him with Diana from Nick and mother Kelly, thinking Saun was the only person she could trust with thier child. I am sure that was her worst feeling ever. After being told a lie by the one person she felt she could only trust since he was the father of Diana that the Royals took Diana and no one to help get her back, all she had left was to beg the Royals to see/be with her daughter and was ready to do anything for that (mother's instinct), hence the option was given to her to take the Grimm's powers away.
So the picture here is; there was nothing close to an act of revenge of any sort focused on any or one particular person. It was just a mother who was desperately looking for a chance/way to get back her missing child (daughter).
