Placing my faith in a ridiculously powerful warrior capable of overcoming challenges and despair again and again seems a pretty safe bet to me when facing a foe who wields despair as a weapon.
I wouldn't say a safe bet at all. Her plan outright failed in the 8UC timeline where the WoL dies. Plus, to get back to the WoL she met in Elpis required multiple rejoinings to occur. It makes the events of HW and ShB even more shady if you consider she was purposely holding off on saving the First because it needed to be rejoined in one timeline and come close to it in another.
