Both actions do indeed end less hostile than expected - in the paladin's case, that's mostly due to the agility of the harpy, paired with a decent parry by the minotaur who apparently does know how to wield his sword quite well. In Wren's case, the meddling of peaceful thoughts with her mind is still too much to handle - she nearly stabs the minotaur in its flank, only to pull back in the last second, knowing better than to cause harm to him.
Thus, Clockwork Syringe is up with Baird.
