The axe also offers advice sometimes, although always in an insulting tone, like: "Go do this, you won't regret it; nevermind what the pansy Elf thinks. Remember how he didn't want to do X, Y, and Z and you ended up regretting it?" etc. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" /></blockquote>
