antigone

ismene and antigone are talking and antigone desides that she will burry their brother. she knows that she will get in truble if she does it but she thinks it is worth it to honor her brother. The king had said that he was to be left there to rot and be eaten by animals. Sentry comes and says how the guards had fallen asleep and that the body had been covered with dirt.
the king tells them they need to find the one that did it.
they uncover the body and Antigone comes back and they catch her.
the king is mad and says he will kill her.
ismene comes and tells them that she helped even though she didn't because she didn't want to live without her sister.
Haemon comes and supports the king, even though he thinks what antigone did was right.
the king sentences antigone to be locked in a cave untill she dies.
Haemon is sad that she is being locked up so he kills himself.
when his mother finds this out she also kills herself, so the king is left all alone.
