That she is young, inexperienced and therefore easily frightened by bullies is what Ismene's response says about her character in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, Theban King Creon arbitrarily takes it upon himself to deny his perceived enemies god-given rights of all Thebans to below-ground burials and funeral rites. He therefore has the body of Princess Ismene's brother Polyneices left above ground and unburied. The memory of her parents' dreadful punishment, the knowledge of such an unthinkable violation of cherished rights and the acquaintance with her uncle King Creon's stubborn temper are more than enough to cow Ismene's young and impressionable character.
