c. Priam's groan was louder than the roar of the
flames.

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Piteously means pitiful, so it is probably not C, I have not read the story but it doesn't seem like Priam (the father?) would set fire to the town. so i would say D, the death of hector meant the end of troy.
