    She turns her back on him.  Her moment of glory is killing herself because she was embarrassed by her actions in book 4 so to see him in the Underworld is probably mindboggling for her.  So that is why she just turns away from him upset and ignoring him.  She becomes like the "oak tree" as Aeneas was in book 4.
