Answer:
The answer is below
Explanation:
This story is about the universe's creation, popular among the Yorubas. Yoruba is the name of a nation predominantly in West Africa, particularly, Nigeria, the Republic of Benin, and Togo.
The story begins with the spiritual descension or coming down from heaven by a mystical god known as Obatala.
Obatala came from heaven under the instruction of Olodumare, the Supreme God. While Obatala was coming, he came with a hen that has seven legs, and a snail shell that has sand.
Obatala was tasked by Olodumare to create land on the water. When he reached the earth and saw the earth full of water, he pours the mystical sand on the water, and then placed hen with seven legs to spread it all over the world.
The spreading of the sand with the legs of the hen is a sign of expansion, which is a rough translation of "Ile-Ife." (The expanding house).
It was in Ile-Ife, Obatala first landed and the beginning of sand expansion started. It was after this the creation of humans by Olodumare, the Supreme God, started fully.

Answer:
A or C I'd pick A myself.
Explanation:
Anything with a comma in front of instead is simply not correct. The sentence is too long and the change too abrupt to be handed with a comma. So B and D leave a little bit to be desired.
I don't think C is correct, but it is just marginally not so. If I saw it in a student paper, I'd probably ignore it. I don't think you need the comma after instead. I would pick a myself, but that does not mean I'm correct.
Don't be a bit surprised to see the answer is C. I think the comma after instead is too much, but that is a matter of opinion.
Instead is an adverb. Most of the time you need not emphasize adverbs. It's a very hard call.
