It is from lacking to finding courage that Ismene changes since the beginning of "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, Theban Princess Ismene is not a risk taker. She observes that burying her brother Polyneices and receiving the death sentence from her uncle King Creon are outside her comfort zone. She prefers to follow and obey men than to protect the rights of a vulnerable family member. But she realizes in her second interaction that playing it safe makes life lonely without her courageous sister. She stands up for herself and Antigone.
That their father leaves a legacy of dishonor, pain, rumor and shame is the information that Antigone gives about Oedipus to Ismene at the beginning of "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone gives unspecified information about disgraced King Oedipus. Antigone indicates that she and her sister Ismene have experience with woe. She traces it back to unnamed problems in her father's life.

The decision to spare Ismene is the change that Theban King Creon makes in his plan to kill Antigone and Ismene. Antigone is found breaking the law of non burial to the disloyal Theban dead. Ismene isn't. But Ismene claims that she's an accessory. At first, Creon decides that the death sentence is going to be carried out against both of his nieces. But he then backs down, and decides the only his future daughter-in-law Antigone is going to be executed.
Ismene wouldn't help Antigone bury the body of their brother, but when Antigone is caught she won't let Ismene take any of the blame because she was loyal to the law and not to her family.

Nothing indicates that differences are settled between Antigone and Ismene in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Ismene does not appear in the play after her explosive interaction with her sister Antigone during the latter's trial. Subsequently, Creon indicates that he will release Ismene, as innocent of wrongdoing, and punish Antigone, as the lone perpetrator.
nigah screw you. I aint helpin' antigone she a dumb hoe.
Sisters and cousins is the relationship between Antigone and Ismene in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Antigone and Ismene are the daughters of disgraced Theban monarchs Oedipus and Jocasta. Their parents both are direct descendants of Cadmus, Thebes' founder and first king, but by different grandchildren. Their parents therefore are cousins to each other as are the sisters Antigone and Ismene.
