Self Diana Spoiler
I'm re-watching Grimm for a millionth time, but i still don't understand something. At first Diana was scared to death of the Zerstörer, cried and screamed, why did she suddenly accept him and wanted to go with him, didn't even react to the death of her parents? she even smiled when he killed Renard. Any idea?

You know I've thought about that exact same thing a million times over and the only thing I can come up with is his power called to her and that tricked her into believing that he was not the bad guy and he needed her. With her power being so extremely immense and his power being so closely rooted to her own power it calmed her. I mean I'm just throwing stones in the dark but that's my opinion on it.

I think it was some type of mind screw on Zerstorer's part, to get Nick to hand the stick to him willing. Zerstorer wanted a restored staff when he came over. He wanted Nick disperate to have his family back that he'd do anything.

My guess is Zerstorer taking control over her/influencing her when he got to her. Diana repeatedly says "He's coming for me", "Don't let him find me", etc.

Diana as a character never made any sense. Why did she have her crazy growth spurts? How was she connected to the other place? What exactly are her powers? I wish they explained her better - and she'd be more than just creepy little kid with weird powers. I actually liked the scene when she was terrified of the Zerstorer, because for the first time ever, she behaved like a real child. Of course they ruined it in the next scene - with no explanation. Well, there was obviously some mind control/whatever involved, but it was lazy writing, IMHO.

That was technically in the Other place. So that was Zerstorer controlling everything that happened to get Nick to give him the piece of the stick he had since he couldn't actually take it from him.
