Oh no, I would never. I have never seen her temper, truly, but I have been scolded. I was certainly frightened then, even if it was barely a fraction of her upset.
Oh, I do not doubt that she could be terrifying if she so chose. But in Valinor the greatest terror was never being sure how she would exact her revenge later!
Oh yes - she had a knack for knowing exactly what you most did not want, and finding the most humiliating way of giving you exactly that. She did not always indulge so, of course - which only made it worse, for you were never certain if this was going to be that time.
Ah now, I would like to think I certainly did, but we were young and the fire of life was strong in all of us in those days. Many in the family dared her temper, knowing she would never truly hurt them, for the sheer thrill of it, I sometimes think.
No doubt she made them all regret it each and every time. I wonder if ever she failed to make it creative though with how often you all much have tried her so.
