At the inn, preparing to go

I'm waiting here, at the Tabard, where I think I recognize some of the pilgrims here. There's the Summoner (whose skin treatments still don't seem to work since I last saw him), and I think I recognize that parson and his brother (I may have given a sermon at their community). I heard about some kind of story contest on the way down, maybe I'll have a chance to give my latest speech.
