Her tone is almost sing song, catching the bat. The one who attacked her gets knocked out - look, a gentle tap to the head is nice, right? Right. Don't worry about it.
Scipos would worry about hurting them even with kneecaps. We don't. She is worried about hurting them, don't get her wrong - but she also knows her own strength. And she knows that a little pain will go a long ways for the greater good.
God, she hopes she doesn't have to say that aloud.
But she holds the bat - not correctly, of course, but with a firm enough grip - and makes sure to aim for the knees or the arm. A broken arm is also recoverable, but she doesn't want to send anyone into shock and make it hard for them to be helped.
She also can't stop the other cultists from killing each other. But at least for the ones she does fight - she doesn't kill them.
