Answer: C. Third-person point of view.

To identify what type of narrator or point of view is used in a text, we need to pay attention to the pronouns used. If the speaker uses the pronouns "I" and "we" it is a first person point of view, if he uses "you" is a second person point of view, and if he uses the pronouns "he," "she," "it" or "they" it is a third person point of view, which is the case of the given excerpt ("Caloran slowed his horse as he came to the clearing in the forest").
