	During the later part of her life, Amunet presided over a synod of the Alexandrine Hidden Ones to discuss the final form of their Creed and its ironies.

	Following Caesar's assassination, [[Marcus Antonius\|Marc Antony]] used his political power and influence to turn the Roman citizens against Caesar's killers. Aya witnessed a mob savagely beating a Roman senator they mistook for one of the conspirators, and intervened to end his misery.

	Deciding against killing Antony, Aya was chased by another angry mob. Their chase ended with a battle on top of an aqueduct, where Aya fainted from her wounds. Her unconscious body was retrieved by Brutus and Cassius, who took her to their hiding place in a storage room. After Aya woke up, she argued with Brutus, calling his decision to assassinate Caesar rash. Cassius broke up their fight, and Brutus later confided in Aya about his strange dreams, revealing he had received a vision that he had to follow to [[Krete\|Crete]].<ref name="ACO Comic 2" />		Deciding against killing Antony, Aya was chased by another angry mob.

Angered by her refusal to betray her fellow Hidden Ones, Antony ordered her to be thrown into a large submerged arena to be killed by [[Hippopotamus\|hippopotamuses]].

	Amunet was not formally introduced until the 2017 video game ''[[Assassin's Creed: Origins]]'', where it is revealed that the character Aya (voiced by [[Alix Wilton Regan]]), the wife of the protagonist Bayek, would become Amunet following the foundation of the Hidden Ones, the precursors to the Assassin Brotherhood.

This is closer to the historical version of events, as Cleopatra allegedly committed suicide with either a venomous asp or poison.

	Deciding to take matters into their own hands, Aya and Bayek gathered their remaining allies, including Phoxidas, Phanos, [[Tahira]], and Pasherenptah, to discuss the situation. While Aya was angered by Cleopatra's betrayal, Bayek believed that they should set their desire for revenge aside and find something greater to fight for. As such, he declared to his allies his intention to form a [[~~Hidden Ones~~\|brotherhood]] that would protect Egypt from the shadows and fight against tyranny.<ref name="Aftermath" />		Deciding to take matters into their own hands, Aya and Bayek gathered their remaining allies, including Phoxidas, Phanos, [[Tahira]], and Pasherenptah, to discuss the situation.

	While everyone raised a cup to the newly-formed brotherhood, Aya realized that the Order had shown a lot of interest in Alexander the Great's tomb and decided to investigate alongside Bayek. Arriving at the tomb, the two found a mortally wounded Apollodorus, who informed them that Flavius was the leader of the Order and Khemu's killer and that he had stolen an [[Apple of Eden 2\|orb]] previously given to Apollodorus by Bayek, as well as Alexander the Great's [[Scepter of Alexander the Great\|staff]].<ref name="Aftermath" />		While everyone raised a cup to the newly-formed brotherhood, Aya realized that the Order had shown a lot of interest in Alexander the Great's tomb and decided to investigate alongside Bayek.

	In 38 BCE, Amunet traveled to the [[Sinai]] after learning of the situation the local Hidden Ones had found themselves in: the Roman forces of General [[Gaius Julius Rufio]], an Order member, had occupied the peninsula as a starting point for their planned invasion of Egypt, and the Hidden Ones had allied themselves with a local rebel leader named [[Gamilat]] to stop them.<ref name="The Hidden Ones" />		In 38 BCE, Amunet traveled to the [[Sinai]] after learning of the situation the local Hidden Ones had found themselves in: the Roman forces of General [[Gaius Julius Rufio]], an Order member, had occupied the peninsula as a starting point for their planned invasion of Egypt, and the Hidden Ones had allied themselves with a local rebel leader named [[Gamilat]] to stop them.<ref name="THO">''[[Assassin's Creed: Origins]]'' – ''[[The Hidden Ones (DLC)\|The Hidden Ones]]''</ref>

	Shortly after her arrival, Amunet freed Bayek, who had traveled to the Sinai for the same reason, but had been captured by the Romans following an attack on the local Hidden Ones [[Hidden Ones Klysma bureau\|bureau]] and was set to be crucified. With Bayek rescued, the two headed to [[Fort Clostra]] to save their fellow Hidden Ones [[Kashta]] and Tahira, who had also been captured. Unfortunately, Tahira had been mortally wounded and passed away shortly after they arrived at Amunet's camp.<ref name="No Chains Too Thick">''[[Assassin's Creed: Origins]]'' – ''[[The Hidden Ones (DLC)\|The Hidden Ones]]'' – [[No Chains Too Thick]]</ref>		Shortly after her arrival, Amunet freed Bayek, who had traveled to the Sinai for the same reason, but had been captured by the Romans following an attack on the local Hidden Ones [[Hidden Ones Klysma bureau\|bureau]] and was set to be crucified.

	After the Hidden Ones mourned Tahira's death, Amunet informed Bayek that Rufio had recently landed with his fleet at [[Arsinoe]]. As the two rode there together, Amunet informed Bayek of the situation in Rome and they discussed Cleopatra, who had entered a relationship with Marc Antony, threatening to put Egypt in the crossfire of Antony and Octavian's war. Upon arriving in Arsinoe, Amunet and Bayek fought off Rufio's soldiers before Bayek assassinated the general aboard his personal [[octareme]], putting an end to the Order's plans to invade Egypt.<ref name="Sic Semper Tyrannis" />		After the Hidden Ones mourned Tahira's death, Amunet informed Bayek that Rufio had recently landed with his fleet at [[Arsinoe]].

	Later, Amunet discovered that Gamilat had been sacrificing innocent lives by ordering his men to hide in various villages, so that when the Romans would massacre the villagers in search of the rebels, they would create martyrs to motivate more people to join Gamilat's rebellion. She informed Bayek of this, prompting the latter to confront Gamilat, which culminated in the rebel leader's death.<ref name="The Greater Good">''[[Assassin's Creed: Origins]]'' – ''[[Hidden Ones\|The Hidden Ones]]'' – [[The Greater Good]]</ref>		Later, Amunet discovered that Gamilat had been sacrificing innocent lives by ordering his men to hide in various villages, so that when the Romans would massacre the villagers in search of the rebels, they would create martyrs to motivate more people to join Gamilat's rebellion.

	Gamilat's death and subsequent reverence as a hero caused the Sinai's population to forget about the Hidden Ones, allowing them to operate in the shadows once more. After establishing a new [[Hidden Ones Arsinoe bureau\|bureau]] in the mountains of the [[Arsinoe Nome]], Amunet and Bayek gave a speech before their apprentices, declaring that their [[The Creed\|ideals]] and, thus, the brotherhood must outlive any of them. Afterwards, Amunet and Bayek shared one final moment together, where she assured him that they had done good before leaving to return to Rome.<ref name="The Greater Good" />		Gamilat's death and subsequent reverence as a hero caused the Sinai's population to forget about the Hidden Ones, allowing them to operate in the shadows once more.

	Around 34 BCE, Amunet received word of another [[Akhenaten's Apple of Eden\|strange artifact]] like the one Flavius had used to control the population of Cyrenaica, located in the city of [[Thebes, Egypt\|Thebes]] in Upper Egypt. Realizing that such power must not fall into the wrong hands again, Amunet sent a letter to Bayek, asking him to investigate the nature of a [[Curse of the Pharaohs\|curse]] that had been plaguing the region, allegedly caused by the artifact.<ref name="~~Curse of the Pharaohs~~">''[[Assassin's Creed: Origins]]'' – ''[[The Curse of the Pharaohs]]'' – [[The Curse of the Pharaohs (memory)\|The Curse of the Pharaohs]]</ref>		Around 34 BCE, Amunet received word of another [[Akhenaten's Apple of Eden\|strange artifact]] like the one Flavius had used to control the population of Cyrenaica, located in the city of [[Thebes, Egypt\|Thebes]] in Upper Egypt.
