Option A: Wrong
This statement from the option here does not capture nor did it gasp the motive behind the whole write up which is to of course use the cognitive ability to discern what the original article means.

Option B: wrong
The statement is deliberately kept long without much difference or offering extra meaning to the mindset of the reading audience. Sentences should be concise, brief and must be devoid of formations capable of making things difficult.

Option C: Wrong
Here, logic fails. The attitude of the writer is such that he aims to deliberately confuse whoever reads that 'presumably' more than two characters are involved in this plot which is not true.

Option D: Wrong
Here, the writer informed the audience that the prophecies is singular which isn't true. It does seek to ensure that there's a need for grammatical correction. Hence it does not apply.

Option E: Right
This sentence is full of logic because it captures all the characters brilliantly and it explains the originality of their roles. It is more appropriately placed and full of grammatical weight. The most correct of all.
