B Correct answer
Explanation

Set off means to begin a journey or start an activity/process. This is the most common phrasal verb used in this context. Set in means to begin and become established (used for weather, conditions), not for starting actions. Set with and set on are not standard phrasal verbs with relevant meanings.
