Wolfe and Thorin walked down the streets toward the hotel instead of taking a carriage, and Wolfe could see that the shining axe on the Dwarf's back was getting all sorts of attention from the Nobles they passed.
It wasn't particularly special, other than in craftsmanship, to Wolfe's eyes, but it was a Rank Three magical item, which was stronger than Thorin should have been able to make.
Just for safety, Wolfe cast [Kind Intentions] over the forge as they left, making sure nobody broke in and smashed this one. Not that it would be easy to do with a Dragon Stone forge, but wrecking the building itself would be a delay to Thorin's work.
It wasn't uncommon to carry weapons into the restaurant, but a battleaxe wasn't a common one, and the hotel concierge seemed uncertain whether to ask him if he wanted to check it or to let him keep it on his back as Thorin entered behind Wolfe.
