At first Honir and Mimir were welcomed and accepted by the Vanir, but the gods gradually came to the conclusion that they had got the worst of the exchange with the Aesir.
The problem was the terrible indecisiveness of Honir, which reached embarrassing proportions whenever Mimir was absent.
To the Vanir it seemed that Mimir was not only Honir's voice but also his brain, so in anger they cut off Mimir's head and sent it back to Asgard.

 Station Information - Vanir
The Vanir are usually considered one of the two pantheons of gods in Norse mythology: together with Aesir they are collectively known as the Asa.
They include Niord, Freyr and Freya, who live among the Aesir since the end of the conflict between the two clans of gods (traded for Mímir and Honir); the identity as Vanir of Skadi, Lýtir, Gerdr and Odr may be debated.
Skadi was a giantess married to one of the Vanir (Niord); Gerdr was also a giantess, with whom Freyr fell in love and with whom he managed to have a union, having sold his sword as payment; but it is not clear whether this union amounted to more than a single meeting.
