In "A Meeting in the Dark," the motif of the lion-demon most likely represents

Question

Create an abstract image that includes the following elements: a distressed human figure to represent confusion, viewed from a distance, standing at a crossroads (to signify being trapped between two worlds) with two paths before him. On one path, depict a shadowy lion-demon that signifies fear and potential peril. On the other path, illustrate a symbol of Christian values, such as a shining cross. The overall atmosphere should be tense and uncertain, fitting the theme of struggle and decision-making. Incorporate dark and light shades to depict the internal conflict.

In "A Meeting in the Dark," the motif of the lion-demon most likely represents

A. Being trapped between two worlds
B. self-hate
C. the foolishness of old age
D. Christian values

I am super confused about this!! I am going between A and D because the whole theme of this story is of John being trapped between two things, but i don't know if the "lion-demon motif" represents that. It might be that the lion-demon represents the Christian values that would swallow John up if he marries Wamuhu and what he has done comes out. I really need help on this! PLEASE!
