The correct answer is:

C) Kennings

A kenning is a figurative expression that replaces a name or a noun. Often it is a compound of two words and the words are hyphenated. Is especially used  in Old Germanic, Old Norse, and Old English poetry.

The correct answer is C) Kennings.

Indeed, “whale-way” and “sea-flood” are good examples of kennings. Kennings are two hyphenated words that substitute a noun by using figurative expressions. Whale-way sounds like a kenning for whale feeding ground or whale migration routes, sea-flood is probably a kenning for a storm or a huge rogue wave.
