Barnaby, the self-proclaimed "cicerone" of the annual Ferret Fanciers' Convention, regaled us with tales of prize-winning pipsqueaks and elaborate burrow architecture.

Our esteemed cicerone, a veritable compendium of arcane lore, regaled us with sagas of medieval gargoyles while deftly navigating us through the labyrinthine corridors of a castle positively reeking of antiquity.
