unawed
Coolly facing grandeur
Unawed means not feeling or showing awe—remaining unmoved by something meant to inspire reverence, fear, or wonder.
She stood unawed before the emperor.
The word often suggests courage or defiance in the face of power or grandeur: unawed by threats, unawed by reputation.
