Polyneices Buried: Dishonor to Thebes?

Polyneices, nephew of King Creon, was illegally buried yesterday, according to the order of Creon himself. This deed, seen as good by many, but blasphemous to the kingdom by others, was carried out by Antigone, daughter of Oedipus and sister of Polyneices. Though Polyneices was battling against our homeland and his brother, the honorable Eteocles (may his soul cross the River Styx peacefully), Antigone felt the need to give her blood a proper burial. After all, Polyneices was one of the best warriors of our time, he just happened to be on the opposing side. People of Thebes, please look at this man from a different perspective. He was doing his duty as a warrior! His caring sister was right in thinking that he should not be condemned to the fiery depths of the underworld. The memory of Polyneices should be remembered forever as a great hero. His body shall not be dismembered as carrion, and his soul shall cross the River Styx as Eteocles. It was recently reported that King Creon is currently deliberating what to do with Antigone and Ismene, her sister who knew of her plans. The source of this information came directly from the sentry of King Creon's royal court.
