Answer:

B. Imaginative and Dark.

Explanation:

To be imaginative means to be creative - with words, in this case.

The use of metaphorical comparisons in the excerpt is an example of an imaginative technique. Phrases such as "Silence of the grave", "Cradle of life", and "Opening his curtains" are examples of these metaphors.

The dark tone comes when the character begins to awaken, as they slowly discover their horrid appearance.
