undismayed

/ʌndɪsmˈeɪd/ adj

Not dismayed; calm and undaunted.

Word Origin Dismay comes from the idea of losing power — from Old French desmaier, literally 'to un-might' someone, to make them feel helpless. Undismayed means not losing your might, staying strong. The root *magan also gives us may, might, and main (strength).
