Actually, you are absolutely right, that we could say "there were many sanctuaries," but we don't have that choice.

The best answer is B). This one is tricky because we have inversion of the subject and verb here because of the adverbial phrase "between those tongues of ice."

Check out my page on inversion for more info on this very tricky grammar point!!

Hope that helps!!

Please post here if you have any more questions!!
