of course. but you must admit, the sword was acting a bit on the superior side. And Teleri feels quite strongly about party-participation.
The sword has done little but deride her since day one, not that she hasn't deserved a bit of that. She has made an effort to treat the weapon as an equal party-member since then, even taking into account the weapons own point of view. And she's gotten nothing but grief from it. Wouldn't you feel a bit pissed at that sort of behavior, especially if you're doing your best to improve yourself?
and if the sword does try to harm teleri or any other party member, she will drop it down the nearest ravine or have it melted. She is crazy enough to haunt the sword for eternity if it does manage to kill her.
instead of it trying to 'teach' her a lesson, they may have a talk after the combat and work out their differences. After all, if the sword has her killed or harmed, that would be out of character alignment. Good creatures don't knowingly hurt other party members. Teleri has no idea what the sword is capable of. That's why she's asking questions on what it can and can't do.
Hmm. Idea.
Her goddess is keenly aware of how the sword and Teleri's personality problems. Perhaps in an effort to teach both of them a lesson in cooperation and other such things, she puts them through a series of dream-quests every time Teleri sleeps. This would be well within Sehahine's perogative.
Eventually, both of them will realize that they need each other and draw closer together and mature to be bastions against evil. Because right now, all they're really doing is sniping at each other like little kids. Not that it isn't fun.

It'd be a great way to develope the sword's personality as well as Teleri's maturity. And it'd be a neat way to explain Teleri's boost in wisdom once she gains enough levels for it.
