c. He dies and remains lashed to the body of Moby-D*ck.

Explanation:

Fedallah is a character in Moby Di. ck. He is a Parsee, which is a member of a Persian religious sect. This quality makes him a "man of mystery" in the story. He is commited to doing God's work, but it is never clear what this actually means. Towards the end of the story, Parsee dies and remains tied to the whale, which carries away his body.
