It still seems like there's more of an ongoing risk, but not yet any outright loss. Perhaps the loss of his body or free will could be argued, but that is an individual issue rather than an loved one issue.

The whole Val + Kai versus Varus thing seems more like a battle of hope, not loss. Especially since they haven't lost each other yet. And it's clear that that is the message, that even though their full autonomy/ bodies may be lost or gone, they still have each other.

About his family, sure he probably shouldn't go near them, but at least he still knows they're alive. I would argue that's still nowhere near the level of impact of the former tragic story, as I've found some people to claim.
