Explanation:

In "Antigone" by Sophocles, the story revolves around the theme of loyalty to one's blood even at the face of death. The protagonist Antigone had decided to bury her brother Polyneices' dead body despite the law made by Creon to kill anyone who dared to do such an act.

While the central theme of the whole play is the courage of a female character Antigone to oppose the king's proclamation, it also shows the loyalty of the sister towards her own brother even though it may have been deemed an act of treason by their own king. By burying the dead corpse of Polyneices who was killed alongside his own brother Eteocles, Creon hailed him as a patriot and called Polyneices a traitor leading to the law that prevents anyone from giving him a proper burial.

Antigone nevertheless decided to bury him which landed her in the king's court for committing the crime of disobeying the law. She later hanged herself, leaving Creon and her sister Ismene alone. She proclaims to Creon "I dared.  It was not God’s proclamation", showing her bravery to stand up against the king who everyone seemed to revere like a god.
