** On Discworld, what you believe comes true if you believe truly and honestly enough. That is literally the power behind all the gods. One believer, one person honestly believing that a god has helped him find a lost lamb is enough to start a religion. So, if you believe that an axe is a holy symbol, it is a holy symbol! Not to mention that other people watching want to believe, too. Why shouldn't exist a holy axe that cuts through evil (vampires)? They only had to see somebody swing it.
