"Save" in this scenario means to keep something for future use. The phrase "save the best for last" means to withhold the most important/valuable information until the very end of something. She waited to reveal The Enchantress until the end because she thought that The Enchantress was the government's best weapon. Ex: She saved her dessert to eat later. Ex: I saved my lunch for tomorrow. Ex: I have a few tips for you but I'll save them for when you need them.
