The Thebe Press
One days ago Antigony buried her traitorous brother Polynieces. She was seen by a sentry who wishes to remain annonymous. Antigony claims she was doing the right thing by giving her brother a proper burial, even if he performed a crime of very high treason. King Creon himself declared that all enemies of the state shall not recieve proper burial.
Even with this decree in action, his niece Antigony, still buried her brother. It is believed that Polynieces' body was buried somewhere in the hills north of Thebes. The punishment for Princess Antigony has not yet been decided. The King hasn't decided to begin a search for Polynieces' body to be unburied.
It is also believed that Antigony's sister Ismene was also involved in this case. Now there is concerns about the new law not being moral. A prophet even believes that this law will cause problems throughout the kingdom.
