Just dropping in to say that Kieron's last idea is pretth solid.
I could make comparison to NPC and his weapon, which... I think are functioning vaguely similarly. So I will.
Magnai is rocking (pun intended) axe that to us players is just Axe of Crags. He... probably never killed Titan, so where he would have gotten it? Well, on meta level it is much simpler to draw conclusion that his axe is not supposed to be seen as proof of some primal slaying job done right, but just cool axe for big, bad, important NPC.

"If you say in the first chapter that there is a rifle hanging on the wall,Â
in the second or third chapter it absolutely must go off.Â
If it's not going to be fired, it shouldn't be hanging there."
