inexorability
Cannot be swayed
Inexorability is the quality of being impossible to stop, prevent, or persuade otherwise.
It suggests relentless forward motion that ignores appeals or resistance: the inexorability of time, the inexorability of death.
The word often carries a sense of grim inevitability—forces that proceed without mercy or pause, indifferent to human wishes.
