That Creon suffer as much as she suffers is Antigone's final request in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone exits from the royal to climb up to the remote cave in which she is to be buried alive. She makes the request that her death not be spoken of while she still lives. She then requests that her judge suffer exactly as she suffers.

The fate of Antigone as engaged to be married is an example of dramatic irony in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone is engaged to be married to her first cousin, Prince Haemon. But their engagement is ended with Antigone's being sentenced to death by King Creon, her uncle and intended father-in-law. Instead, Antigone's final resting place within a remote, walled up cave is described, dramatically and ironically, as her marriage bower. Antigone's final outfit for her eternal imprisonment is described, dramatically and ironically, as her wedding dress. Antigone's final march to her cavernous prison is described, dramatically and ironically, as her wedding procession. Antigone's final breaths as the air is used up in the cave are described, dramatically and ironically, as her eternal marriage to Death.
That she is to blame for her own predicament is the chorus' reaction to Antigone's plight in her final scene in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the chorus reminds Theban Princess Antigone of her own choices. They say that respect for the gods is important, but does not entail offense to royal rulers. They state that Antigone's willful spirit and uncontrolled passion put her on the road to her death by live burial.
She hangs herself inside the cave on the final stage of the play.
Neither one of Antigone's brothers is killed by Creon in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone has two twin brothers, Eteocles and Polyneices. Her brothers kill each other in the final battle of the first civil war over the Theban royal succession. Her uncle Creon supports Eteocles but is not involved in the final duel between the brothers.
That Creon's son loves and will marry her is the final plea that Ismene makes to spare Antigone in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Creon expects to execute his niece Princess Antigone for breaking his law and burying her brother Polyneices. Antigone makes no attempt to change Creon's opinion. But Princess Ismene tries to save her sister's life by reminding Creon of the great love and marriage plans between his niece Antigone and his son Prince Haemon.
