The correct answer is C.

The excerpt illustrates a folktale is related to real historical events.

According to this excerpt, this folktale tells the story of a man named Toby leaving. The specifics are unclear, as Master says it's a lie, but the tale nevertheless seeks to relate an actual event -- someone leaving.
