Antigone Assignment

My choice would be to go against the king and the law & bury my brother. I would do this because it's the right thing to do. He should be buried as a national hero instead of my other brother because he didn't start the fight. I'd also try to convince my sister to join me in burying my brother, a burial & a title that he deserves. Even though it means going against the King and the laws he set, my brother deserves a proper burial where he can be remembered in honor.

First, I'd go look for his body where it was deposited at a city as a bird and maggot meal. Then I'd take the body and find my sister to show & try to convince her that we should give our brother the proper burial. If she is not in agreement with me, I will bury him myself. I will look for a proper burial site. Then dig up a hole big enough to fit his body. I'd lay the body in the hole. Before covering up the hole, I'd say a little speech in honor of him and say a few prayers. I'd lay a last rose on his chest and then cover the hole up. Then I'd go talk to the king and tell him I have done so. If he chooses to execute me, then so be it. If not, I will try to convince him that it was the right thing to do in hopes he will believe me.

I'd do all this because I have strong family values. I believe that no matter what the situation is, we should always try and help our families. I know I may fight with my sisters and my parents, but at the end of the day, they're the ones who will always be there for you regardless of anything. I'd also do anything to have my family name honored.
