Antigone News Post

-The Greek Gazette
*King Creon's Decree Dishonored*
It has been discovered that King Creon's niece and future daughter-in-law, Antigone, has disobeyed a law recently decreed by the king and has sought to bury her deceased brother, Polyneices. The disturbance of the corpse was first noticed two nights ago, when the sentries of the battlefield discovered a fresh layer of dust on the dead prince's body while making their timely rounds. The Sentries found this perplexing seeing as there was no evidence left at the crime scene to start them on the right path.
In a bit of a gamble to expose the culprit, the sentries posted a group steak-out among the carrion in the hopes that their criminal would return to the scene of the crime. The Sentries' gamble payed off, and after a brief sandstorm, the culprit was found standing over the corpse. The law breaker turned out to be none other then the deceased traitor's sister, Antigone, (as previously mentioned). When brought in for questioning, Antigone denied nothing and took full credit for the illegal event.
Things were sent into an even greater state of confusion when Antigone's sister, Ismene, stepped forward to defend her sister and decided to take partial credit of the crime. What will become of this mess? Only time will tell, but as for these two sisters, current speculation suggests nothing short of death. -Ian
