If you don't offer redemption, then you're not very good since all you're doing is enforcing divinity at the end of a sword. Ultimately, the outcome of the act would merit its worth. If you raised a corathite and he kept on killing, then your god would be upset with you, if the wicked man instead turned to good, you god would be happy. Gods are fickle like that, the only care about the results of their followers' actions, not the motive usually.
Which is exactly why Az'atta would likely accept the aid of her enemies, if redemption were the goal, as all are worthy of such in her eyes. She's about the only one though.

Heck, just ask Lucindites why their goddess made babies with the dreaded Corath and the topic changes rather quickly.
A vile, vicious rumor, I assure you!

Incidentally this gave rise to the rumor that they're enemies now because Corath skipped out on child support payments.
