In the spring of 1180, Magnús Erlingsson summons the levy from the entire western coast of Norway. He sails with his fleet from south-eastern Norway and north to Trondheim, where Sverrir has been spending the winter. Archbishop Eysteinn Erlendsson accompanies Magnús. This st. enumerates the units that participate in that expedition.
