Biography
On 17 August 1424, after the Battle of Verneuil, John was captured by the English and imprisoned at Le Crotoy. Upon his release in 1429, he traveled to Chinon to the home of the Dauphin Charles VII. On 7 March, John was introduced to Jeanne d'Arc. Impressed with her devotion he offered to purchase her a battle-hardened steed and sword. Jeanne, however, denied the offer for a sword saying she had already found one. John could also see Jeanne's radiance, owing to his latent ability.[1] From 9–12 March, John kept Jeanne company in Poitiers while she waited for Gabriel to return with the sword he had gone to retrieve for her.[2]
