"Well, my friend, consider me impressed. I don't begrudge my little gifts to you."
Upon hearing what, exactly, this lion's group had brought down, Wa could only blink for a moment, trying to imagine the hunt. Even young, a bull elephant was no easy prey. Well, well, well.
"If you and yours brought down one of those beasts, then don't let me delay you. Otherwise the best pickings may be gone before you get to them."
Winking, Wa inclined his head in a friendly half-bow and turned to make his way back to his sleeping place. He could easily make a half-day's journey. That was hardly any effort. But he wanted the rest of his nap. And maybe a bit of a hunt. If these vikings were all so trophy crazed, it might not be a bad idea to come bearing gifts, either. Otherwise, they might snatch him bald!
