Novel & Cerita Antigone Burying Her Brother

The night had turned cold, and she’d been wearing only a thin black dress for the funeral. The clearing was eerily quiet as I approached. Agnes had chosen a pretty willow tree to bury her baby under, nestled in a copse of trees that was visible from the house. It was a good spot. If I had been in her position… I hated to think about burying Thea, but if I had to, Goddess forbid, I would have chosen this location too. Agnes was sitting cross-legged at the foot of the grave, her black dress pooling around her. She didn’t look up as I approached, didn’t give any indication that she’d heard my footsteps on the grass.

Since then it's like I've been on autopilot. Feed the baby. Call Sarah's employer. Burp the baby. Meet with the funeral home. Change the baby. Bury my sister. I stare at the casket in front of me. Sarah lies inside of it. I can't believe I'm burying my baby sister. Genevieve, my best friend and coworker, sits next to me, holding the baby. She keeps trying to quiet his cries while the preacher drones on about the sanctity of life and the need to treat every day as if it's your last.

Make fifteen bodies to be buried tomorrow. Ombro ordered all its members to work, preparing for tomorrow's ceremony. They buried all the bodies, in one big hole…that way it would be easier. They will be lined up and buried together. Today, some grown men dug the ground at the edge of the camp.. a loose soil.. former of sugarcane bed. They cut down the sugar cane first, then they dug it five meters deep. Soon the tomb will be marked…and only their camp will recognize it.

These were dyed white and when I glanced up at Hayden I found him staring at a grave? "Who.....whose is that?" He continued to stare, before sighing, running his hand through his hair. "Belle" "Belle?" I asked with a mixture of turmoil and astonishment. "Why, who did this?" "You know nothing about my brother" he reiterates. "No one does" "Burying her doesn't change the fact that he murdered her" "My brother didn't kill your idiotic sister!" "He admitted to it" Hayden clenched his jaws, folding his fists tightly.

Outside, the drizzle had stopped, and a weak beam of sunlight broke through the clouds — a fragile sign of hope amidst the sorrow. Antony’s parents led the procession to the cemetery where he would be laid to rest. Each mourner dropped a flower onto the casket, their silent goodbyes heavy with love and regret. When it was James's turn — he hesitated. Everyone turned to watch him. He walked slowly toward the casket, his face a mask of misery. He placed a single black rose down and whispered brokenly, "I'm sorry, brother. I'm so sorry." Lydia, standing off to the side, saw it all.

So, Bridgette did the only thing she knew to do, she held him close and let him cry on her shoulder until he couldn't anymore. "We will bury him now," Raiden cleared his throat as he watched his cousin walk in and start to caress her father's red hair. "Come, my love, we will get ready," Raiden and Bridgette got dressed and led everyone outside to the burial water as they sang out the Aktorian song for the lost souls. Just as before Seti was dressed in a shroud, his insides were scooped out and filled with rocks, but he was given to the water with the sign of a swirl on his forehead. It is meant to be recognized as a royal in the afterlife and to have the best in the life beyond, he was the

“Because of you, he’s gone. He died defending you. Did you know that?” I shook my head. “That’s why I tossed your care off to Jenny. I can’t stand the sight of you. If I’d had my way, I’d have left you buried alongside my husband!” I gasped at her remark. Without warning my claustrophobia affliction kicked in. I started gasping for air as if I was suffocating. “So you remember?” she preened. “You…did. You buried me!” I screeched. “And that stupid brother of mine unburied you. Although, I’ll never understand why,” she said. “He should have left you there to rot. You’re nothing but trouble.”

Lucas began, turning to his brother whike stopping what he was doing. "She doesn't deserve a proper burial. I hop.you know that. For her treachery and her evil practices, she will be burnt outside the Pack. And we must make sure nobody has access tk her ashes after she's burnt. I suggest we throw them into the lake by the far side of the woods. In that way nobody would be able to get anything that belonged to her." Liam nodded and told him he would have that in mind.

Dressed in a black long dress, she silently watched as her brother wallows in the darkness that consumed him, the sorrow, the guilt, the pain that he has not yet borne. The pain that he couldn’t numb. Nightfall came, and it was time for the main burial. The family decided to leave her to rest in the family’s private mausoleum, as she was supposedly accepted to be a part of the family. Inside her coffin, she wore the Rose Among Thorns, inside her coffin, she also wore the Rose’s Kiss. Antony didn’t want to burry her yet, he still wanted to mourn longer, he still wanted to see her delicate face.

She didn't believe that anyone should have to carry that burden, not even Lucian. As the rain started pouring down, he gently placed his brother's skull into the open grave. With a firm grip on the shovel, he began burying it quickly, determined to finish before the hole turned into a muddy mess. Visenya stood there, her heart heavy with helplessness, until she noticed another shovel nearby. Without hesitation, she picked it up, ready to assist. In that fleeting moment, they looked at one another, a silent understanding passing between them. Together, they carried on with their solemn task... laying little Mason to rest.
