unpetrified

Freed from stoneness

Unpetrified means not turned to stone, whether literally or figuratively.

Petrified wood has fossilized into mineral; unpetrified wood remains organic matter.

More commonly, unpetrified describes someone who isn't paralyzed by fear: While the others stood frozen, she remained unpetrified and ran for help.
