B. Metaphor
A metaphor is figurative language because it is a figure of speech in which a comparison is being made between two things that are generally quite different in order to provide a more impactful/effective description. A metaphor states one thing is another thing by using “as” in part of the description as is done in the following example: “I am as hungry as a wolf” and is the case with how humans held their belief that the farm would fall as an article of faith.
