According to history, a year after his mother's suicide in 30 BC he was murdered by Octavian. However, in Berenice he was met by 52nd century archaeologist Ventrian, who he believed was a god disguised as a beggar. Ventrian used the device known as the Eye of Horus to place Caesarion into River Song's new manuscript The Ruby's Curse, where he existed as Phil, the sidekick of Melody Malone. Later, River Song used the Eye of Horus to re-unite Caesarion with his mother and siblings somewhere where they would not be found. (PROSE: The Last Pharaoh, The Ruby's Curse)
