Episode B5 – Eclipsis - a podcast by Scott C.

Synopsis: The birth of Juba and Selene’s children, Ptolemy and Drusilla, and the death of Cleopatra Selene.

“The moon herself grew dark, rising at sunset,

Covering her suffering in the night,

Because she saw her beautiful namesake, Selene,

Breathless, descending to Hades,

With her she’d had the beauty of her light in common,

And mingled her own darkness with her death.” – Crinagoras of Myteline, Epigram for Cleopatra Selene
