Depends what she's thinking of in the way of atrocities. If it's an atrocity by her character's personal moral standards it could be perfectly acceptable to the society. I'm thinking particularly of Lunar society here where using chaos to further the Empire's ends is acceptable but many Lunars consider it wrong. However the same applies to any other society, a Heortling could take revenge in a particularly bloodthirsty way which the individual then realises was personally unacceptable.

There are also the Char-un (Sons of Kargzant) and Paggi-Addi (Wesley Quantros' web site), a Lunar who used them might well be upset by the results.
