Answer: A. Something happened that set terrible things in motion.

The narrator in these lines states that the train of his ideas received a "fatal impulse." He tells us that this impulse was responsible for leading him to his ruin. Therefore, it is reasonable to assume that this fatal impulse was a terrible event, and that this event set terrible things in motion.
