Part II: The Short Reigns 1422 - 1423

Deva Raya I was not an old man when he died and the only heir he left was an infant boy named Ramachandra. The new tiny Maharaja was beautiful, but sickly. His uncle, Vijaya, Deva Raya I's older brother, ruled as regent during the short reign of Ramachandra. During Ramachandra's reign the great Army of Bangalore was sent to punish the savages of Pondicherry and fulfill the dying Maharaja's last word.

The infant Maharaja died before the first month of his reign was over and his uncle and regent, Vijaya, ascended the throne as Vijaya Raya I on July 30, 1422. Vijaya Raya was an old man when he became Maharaja. His reign was troubled and problems took a toll on the health of our ruler.

In August the Army of Bangalore arrived in Pondicherry, taking a terrible toll on the savages there. General Sharanpur exacted severe, but just revenge on the natives of Pondicherry. There was a great massacre of the natives and Pondicherry was opened to the expansion of the Hindu Dharma.

In October a great scandal rocked the nation when the Prince of Mangalore was discovered in a traitorous plot with the Emir of Malwa. The plot was a challenge to the feeble Maharaja and an attempt to put the wicked Prince of Mangalore on the golden throne of Vijayanagar. The failing leader sent troops to capture the traitor in Mangalore, but he slipped across the border into Hyderabad and went into exile in the far province of Gujarat.

The army prepared for war against the wicked Emir of Malwa, but the order never came. Before the end of October the Maharaja was laid low with pneumonia. He slipped in and out of consciousness for the next two months and passed away quietly on the night of December 28, 1422.
