    Her decision to go bury her brother, with or without Ismene

    Explanation:

    In Sophocles' "Antigone," the protagonist is a strong and determined woman who opposes the King and disregards his order not to give burial to her brother Polyneices. In that respect, she decides to follow the orders of the Gods rather than Creon's, since she considers the Gods' laws more important than the King's. Thus, she buries her brother whatever it takes and no matter what, which finally costs her life.
