Irony is seen in that this group of people are going on this journey to show respect to the Archbishop, but now they are in it for the free dinner and winning the story-telling competition.
The Knight's son was described with similes, metaphors, and a lot of figurative language.
There was a lot of fancy words used where simple ones would work just a great.
My questions are how will the stories that each character tells play an important role in the story? Do the stories resemble the character that is telling them? Why does Chaucer retell the stories using his own diction rather than copy the words of the story-teller?
My favorite character right now is Madam Eglantyne because she is known to be very kind, tender-hearted, and well mannered.
