The best answer is
<span>The author uses indirect characterization to describe how Millicent feels.

While the author's description of the ceremony gives the idea that Millicent probably looks pretty gross, with egg on her head and whatnot, the passage mainly gives the reader an empathetic view into Millicent's experience.
The scene is described as sounds and sensations from Millicent's point of view. She feels her stiff hair, and the cold egg on her back, hears the stifled laughter and crunch of the egg breaking. We can imagine the intensity of the experience, blindfolded and hearing, feeling, and probably smelling the unpleasant experiences during this initiation.
In the end, the passage concludes with: "</span><span>It was all part of the ceremony." This final sentence may relay how Millicent is processing the unpleasant initiation, rationalizing that this is just a step on her way to being part of the group. </span>

Who is this Thomas á Becket fellow? Why does the narrator-persona begin his discussion of the various pilgrims by describing the

777dan777 [17]

Becket was born about 1119,[4] or in 1120 according to later tradition.[1] He was born in Cheapside, London, on 21 December, which was the feast day of St Thomas the Apostle. He was the son of Gilbert and Matilda Beket.[note 2] Gilbert's father was from Thierville in the lordship of Brionne in Normandy, and was either a small landowner or a petty knight.[1] Matilda was also of Norman descent,[2] and her family may have originated near Caen. Gilbert was perhaps related to Theobald of Bec, whose family also was from Thierville. Gilbert began his life as a merchant, perhaps as a textile merchant, but by the 1120s he was living in London and was a property owner, living on the rental income from his properties. He also served as the sheriff of the city at some point.[1] They were buried in Old St Paul's Cathedral.
