Chapter 427: Portugal's Last Ditch Effort

King Luiz de Avis Sat upon his throne within the city of Lisbon. In his hand was a letter signaling the end of the Iberian Union. King Felipe de Trastámara had issued a letter to his Portuguese counterpart informing him that he would be suing for peace with the Austro-Granadan alliance. 

With the death of the Castilian King and its royal family, Castile was ripe for the taking, and Felipe had planned to take advantage of this. The Portuguese King was shaking with rage as he read the letter that informed him that his only other ally in the Iberian Peninsula was backing out of their short-lived alliance. 

He could not believe he would be so utterly backstabbed by the King of Aragon. The very idea that he would be left to fight this war on his own had almost completely dashed any hope of victory within his heart.
