I agree. Diana is what she is. She can learn restraint and perhaps develop a stronger conscience through the influence of moral people she respects. Mama Kelly was attempting to provide that. Then the King killed Mama K. and took her away. I really wonder how much Diana was aware of at that time such that when Miesner tossed the king out of the helicopter she wasn't at all bothered by it, not out of childish innocence but out of anger at what he had done to her mother figure.

Mama K. said that Diana's only hope for a positive future would be to grow up in as normal an environment as posible. Methinks she had some knowledge of how hexenbeists work that was not generally known or in the books. Yet another horrible loss with her untimely death.

She actually seems to like the idea of having a brother and parents. She wants a 'normal' existence. And she seems quite capable of rolling with things given folks are straight with her. Adalind has been open and restrained. Telling her the truth about her and Renard and Nick. Adalind has studiously avoided using Diana against her enemies. Yet Diana has acted on her behalf everytime she has identified a threat.

As for the main point of this thread, Bonepart did not build his plans in light of Diana's power or initiative. He was as surprised of her ability to kill Renard's mistress as everyone else, except for Adalind. Adalind has been the only one not to underestimate her daughter's power and to recognize them as being Diana when they are revealed. Juliette got a taste of it due to the weird connection the Nick/Juliette/Adalind triange share. So I suspect Diana would easily "unmake" the ring if she knew it was dangerous. But we still don't know the rules for magic items in the Grimm Universe. Will the adverse effect on the kids go off at it's destruction or will they fizzle? Did the effect fizzle already since Boney got killed and he may have been the maker of the spell imbued to the ring, like Adalind's sex spell failed on Hank when her powers were killed off?

If the power rested on Boney, then his death may make this a non-issue. if it rested with a third party or within the ring itself, then we're back to ambiguity.
