According to the narrator - Geoffrey Chaucer- A GROUP OF PILGRIMS, "sundry folk" arrived at the inn.
Each pilgrim is described in the Prologue of the book. ( A pilgrim is a traveler sho is on a journey to a holy place. In this case, to Canterbury, where the shrine of Thomas Beckett is).
Chaucer describes their condition, their social decree and their array. Among the pilgrims there are a knight, a squire, a cook, a carpenter, a doctor of physic, a wife of Bath, etc.
At the end of the Prologue, the host proposes a story telling contest: each pilgrim will have to tell 2 stories on the way to Canterbury and two on the way back.
That's why the title of the book is the "Canterbury Tales"
Transitions help you to keep moving forward in the story and moving from one thing to the next without confusion.
