Answer:

A

Explanation:

The answer is A because in the original sentence is given the idea that we were destroyed by something, in this case, fire, not the ashes. In that sense, the alternative A corrects that stating that we searched for valuables in the ashes, which were destroyed by the fire.

It is not B because it does not specify what we are searching in the ashes and it is not C as well because it gives the same wrong modifier as the original sentence, minus the comma.
