So revenge was the cause of the attack but Diana was in play also. You also have to remember Kelly was against the royals or the resistance having Diana so Nick would take that in as a factor. The never did but one shot at the mansion and Wu had a clear target everything else was (but for the crossbow) was hands on very little if any danger to Diana.

Than with the treatment she got from Viktor shows (if she thinks about it) she would never have gotten Diana back from them, at least with Kelly she could have had a chance. She also knows that Kelly died because of Diana, and Nick did make the effort to get her back.
From what I remember, correct me if I'm wrong here, all Nick said to Adalind was that no one was going to take the baby she was carrying away from her. If Nick wanted to, he could have at that point, arranged for Kelly to return with Diana. He never did.
I understood the motive behind storming the mansion was revenge, nothing more. That's not to say the scoobies wouldn't have taken Diana. However, her rescue was not top priority. One reason I say this is their lack of concern about Diana's welfare. They went into that mansion shooting it up, not worrying about where she was or if she'd be hurt or killed in the line of fire. I don't think Nick knew she had aged as much as she did. I'm assuming he still remembers her as a baby, which makes for an even more reckless situation, in my opinion.
Here's a final question though. Let's say Nick told Adalind he was going to rescue Diana. Is he the one to make the decision to bring her back? Or should it be a consensus, like the decision to kidnap her in the first place?
I still don't think Nick nor Adalind knows how much LBB has aged, he only seen Juliette from a distance and she had a blanket over Diana and was carrying her so he never seen Diana walk or anything showing age.
With Kelly dead there is no other choice other than maybe Elizabeth so Nick is the one to make the choice as I see it.
