Awesome Anger: the Aged vs. the Adolescent

There are two raging volcanoes in my house. Both are predictable and uncontrollable, but neither will stop errupting once they've started. For years there was only one that we all feared and we all learned to get out of it's way until it had cooled off and began sleaping again. As the years went on, that volcano grew old and more dormant. Then...another power arose in the household; it was much smaller than the old mountain and not as experienced, but it carried within itself the stamina of the new generation and the rage of Vesuvius. As the new volcano began its frequent adolescent explosions it rekindled the flame within the old mountain. The legendary "Battle For the Last Word" commenced; forests were devistated instantly and the affects are still being felt throughout the land. For years now, whenever one volcano erupts, it triggers a chain reactions of thousands of little catastrophes and the boiling lava covers all of the innocent village people who (despite their many offerings to these angry gods) writhe in agony as their flesh gets charred from the wave of the arguing titans.
