"We know who you are," Hephaestia tells him then. Her attention is still mostly on the blade. "Isidor told us about you. I was hoping you'd bring your weapons. She said your axes were impressive, but this is beautiful." Her hands go to hover again but she thinks better of it this time around and clasps them behind her back instead. "Work like this has all but died out here. This. This is a sword for killing. Can only undead work the forge?"
