I think that badly misunderstands her characters and her motivations. From a narrative stand point she has to stay hidden away, but there has to also be a canonical justification. Salem is not all-powerful. Her abilities are certainly impressive to people who have no real technology or ability, but in a society in which there are likely thousands of capable soldiers with mastery over magical-type abilities and an even larger number with access to effectively magic weaponry, she isn't that intimidating. They can't kill her, but that doesn't mean they can't contain her or that they would particularly struggle at doing so either.
