A messenger has brought to my tower news of my summons by Creon himself. My counsel, in the matter of Antigone and her sister Ismene, is desired. He must heed my words for I have heard the distressed cries of the birds. The laws of the Gods have been violated and the city polluted. Tainted flesh now bears disgrace upon our alters as sacrifices fail to satisfy and actively dishonor our great deities. The corpse must be buried and the crimes of the girl mildly dismissed or I fear the consequences will be severe.
Where is the boy?
