[spoiler]This uses the present perfect tense, which isn't correct, since no "uncertainty" is present in time. The answer has to be, thus, either B or D, and D is excessively wordy, so I would go with B[/spoiler].
Have you wondered how you could have found such a treasure? -T

but 'at a recent session' hints the choice to be a present perfect case.....

But 'at a recent session' suggests a point of time... the word 'recent' suggests that the session didn't happen too long ago.

The "deciding" is not continuing to this day mate. It just happened and "ended" in the past. So you just use the simple past. I guess the word "recent" is the trick here.
