	Knowing that King [[Manuel I of Portugal]] might have connections to the [[Templars]], the Assassins traveled to Lisbon and [[Interrogation\|interrogated]] one of the men in his council, who revealed that Manuel did indeed serve the Templar cause. They also learned that Manuel was preparing to send a fleet, led by [[Vasco da Gama]], to [[Calicut]]. This prompted the Assassins to warn their [[Indian Brotherhood of Assassins\|brothers]] in India.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]'' – [[Contracts (Italian Brotherhood)#Lisbon\|Contracts]]: "A Fleeting Chance"</ref>		Knowing that King [[Manuel I of Portugal]] might have connections to the Templars, the Assassins traveled to Lisbon and [[Interrogation\|interrogated]] one of the men in his council, who revealed that Manuel did indeed serve the Templar cause.

	Shortly after that, they learned that Manuel was forcing the city's entire [[Judaism\|Jewish]] population to either convert to [[Christianity]] or leave, but had also closed the city borders, making it impossible to escape. Anyone who refused to convert was beaten or even killed. The Assassins arranged for three [[ship]]s to take the Jewish citizens out of Lisbon, though it was not enough and the Assassins were forced to kill many [[Soldier\|guards]] that had found out about their plans.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]'' – [[Contracts (Italian Brotherhood)#Lisbon\|Contracts]]: "Exodus"</ref>		Shortly after that, they learned that Manuel was forcing the city's entire [[Judaism\|Jewish]] population to either convert to [[Christianity]] or leave, but had also closed the city borders, making it impossible to escape.
