Creon takes his Kingdom down with Him

Several nights ago, Creon harshly responded to Antigone that Creon will not bury the body of Polynieces. Polynieces who's Antigone's brother. There was no good signs in the tone of Creon's voice and the way he spoke to his son Haeman's finance or soon to be daughter-in-law.

The last breaths of the suspicious air in Thebes yesterday, Creon has buried Polyneices ten feet below. Even though Creon felt before that Polyneices was very disgraceful and done nothing good to Thebes. Tiresias, the god that was sent to speak to Creon. Tiresias spoke to Creon in his dreams which the truths were brought to his attention that has always blinded him since he's been crowned. There Creon has discovered that the suicide of the daughter of Oepedius; Antigone was leaded back to him. A couple days before, Creon force Antigone out and she hid in a cave. This was her punishment for burying her brother Polyneices. Soon found Antigone hanging herself in the cave. The second death; Creon's very own son Haeman, who kills himself when he hears about the death of his fiance; Antigone. Then Creon realize the repetition he has put on Thebes and his innocent people. Also, the pain in his wife's position. The Queen of Creon and to the people of Thebes, who has killed herself after hearing about her son Haeman and Antigone's death. Creon has dugged himself in a deep hole. He has cause more than a commotion to Thebes, he cause a history to write about. A history of deaths that lead to him in the darkness of only sorrow and fear.
