The correct answer to the statement above is letter C, despite the appearances there was no sign of weakness. It is because it has been implied that the house has an extensive decay, where the appearance of it was slowly beginning to fade but the fabric meant like it wasn't the same as the house, it wasn't decaying like the appearance it has, Like it was giving a different view, instead on focusing on the appearance.
