Solution

The correct options are
A A king fought with his neighbouring country.
C A magician saved the king from being killed by a lion.
D A queen prayed to the gods to bless her with an heir.
Only the second option contains facts about who was killed, and who the killer was. All the other statements do not have any details, and they are very vague. This is why we call them stories.
