September 1218 CE
The expedition organized under papal auspices and consisting mainly of French crusaders arrives in September to Acre, under Cardinal Pelagio Galvani as legate.
Since Pelagius regards the crusaders as being under the jurisdiction of the church, he declines to accept the leadership of John of Brienne, king consort of Jerusalem.
Moreover, he is an imperious person who does not hesitate to interfere in military decisions.
