Answer: B. Figurative language.

Figurative language refers to using figures of speech in order to be more effective, persuasive or descriptive. It usually relies on using words in ways that differ from their literal accepted meanings. Therefore, this allows the author to use words in an unconventional way. In this case, the phrase does not mean that the warriors literally turned into hornets. Instead, it describes te warriors as being as violent, relentless and decisive as hornets.

What elements are required for a poem to be considered a free verse?
Blababa [14]
“Free verse is an open form of poetry, which in its modern form arose through the French vers libre form. It does not use consistent metre patterns, rhyme, or any musical pattern. It thus tends to follow the rhythm of natural speech.”
