Answer 1

Answer:

your answer in below.

Explanation:

The initial 30 pilgrims are all gathered at the Tabard inn prior to starting their pilgrimage. The end goal of their travels is Canterbury, which seems like a cop out answer. The reason that all of the travelers are going to Canterbury is to pay their respects to Saint Thomas a Becket, the Archbishop of Canterbury. In the year 1170 Becket was killed by the order of King Henry II. Becket was killed because Henry was angry that Becket sided with the church more often than he sided with the king (that's the general gist of it anyway). Becket went down in history as a martyr and a saint for standing up for his faith, and the 30 travelers are on a pilgrimage to see the tomb of Becket.
