"Do you know what you've done? Caesarion would have sat on the throne of Rome."

―Cleopatra to Amunet, after the murder of Caesar, 44 BCE.

Caesarion in 44 BCE

Ptolemy XV Philopator Philometor Caesar (born 23 June 47 BCE), better known as Caesarion (Latin: Little Caesar), was the last Pharaoh of Ptolemaic Egypt. He was the eldest son of Queen Cleopatra, and the alleged and thus only biological son of Roman Consul Gaius Julius Caesar, after whom he was named.

He was the final member of the Ptolemaic dynasty of Egypt, who reigned jointly with his mother, from 2 September 44 BCE. He held the position of sole ruler between the death of Cleopatra, on 12 August 30 BCE, up to 23 August 30 BCE, the time his death was ordered by Octavian, Caesar's great-nephew and official heir, who would become the Roman emperor Augustus.

After Aya convinced the besieged Cleopatra that the best way to save Egypt was to take her own life, the queen asked the Hidden One Mentor to protect and train Caesarion. Aya gave her word and took the boy with her back to Rome.

In 2012, he was included in a mnemonic set in Abstergo Industries' Project Legacy.
