Answer:

A) An allegorical theme.

Step-by-step explanation:

Allegorical themes are themes that are hidden under layers in the story, and are meant to teach the audience something and leave them with a greater understanding on the topic, in this case the author wants to help the audience to make peace with death and its reality, and present it as a wise advisor and a friend rather than something to be feared.
