That the gods rule is the significance of the end of "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, the chorus ends with a comment on the foolishness of disrespecting the gods. It is a situation to be avoided at all costs when divine and royal authorities collide and divine and royal laws conflict. The gods leave no disobedience, dishonor or disrespect unpunished.

Is it Antigone or Creon who meets a tragic end in 'Antigone?
Both Antigone and Creon meet tragic ends, but Antigone's is more tragic in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, an end is tragic when the outcome of a human life leads to suffering or takes an unfortunate turn. The description fits both Theban Princess Antigone and King Creon. Antigone's end is tragic because she loses her life and therefore forfeits the opportunity to marry her beloved first cousin, Prince Haemon and to have children with him. Creon's end is a bit less tragic since he still lives at the play's end even though he loses everyone and everything that gives his life meaning.

But he does not want to be seen as the direct cause of his niece Princess Antigone's death. Antigone is becoming an increasingly popular and revered martyr to the oldie but goodie ways of family, gods and traditions. So Creon makes the decision to bury her alive in a remote cave outside Thebes. Nature will take its course once her supply of food runs out.
