That’s an oddly hopeful way of saying she’s abandoning hope.

She isn’t, really. What she’s doing is abandoning hope that Leviathan will be Somebody Else’s Problem, hope that the others will defeat him, and putting that hope on herself instead. She knows, logically, that she’s not very fit for this battle, but she’s holding on to the hope that she can find a way to help nonetheless.

She’s not abandoning hope, she’s redirecting it.
