Answer:

c. Greek mythology

Step-by-step explanation:

The Tree Telling of Orpheus makes allusion to Greek mythology because it is about Orpheus singing to block out the seductive voice of the Sirens.

This can also be found in Greek mythology as King Odyssey was seduced by the Siren Calypso and was her captive for many years.
