She was part of a plot to overthrow Octavian and was killed. While away at war, Marc Antony began a political and romantic relationship with Cleopatra, who was alone after the assassination of Julius Caesar. In order to mend fences with Octavian, Marc Antony married Octavia, Octavian's sister. It was mainly a political move, which obviously didn't work all that well, and despite being married to Octavia, continued his relationship with Cleopatra. That is why he has children of overlapping ages with both women: he was in relationships with them both at the same time, one in Egypt, the other in Rome.(less)

Nothing a 16 year old couldn't handle, however. This I'd say is a part of the historical content of the book. Ancient Romans and Egyptians had all these things very openly in their lives, and the book reflects that. (less)
