Ismene, Teiresias, and Theban King Creonsurvive in 'Antigone'. All of the other major characters die. Antigone kills herself rather than die a slow and painful death walled up in a remote cave. Haemon kills himself rather than live without his first cousin and fiancee, Antigone. Theban Queen Eurydice kills herself rather than live after the suicide of her last surviving child, and rather than live another second with her husband.

Why is it important that Haemon is Creon's sole surviving son in 'Antigone'?

That it offers the possibility of mitigating circumstances for Antigone, raises questions of why that is and thickens the plot is why it is important that Haemon is Creon's sole surviving son in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Creon appears comfortable with sentencing to death Princess Antigone, his niece and his son Prince Haemon's bride-to-be. But the fact that Antigone is a royal in her own right and that she is to marry Creon's sole heir makes it possible that she may receive a lighter sentence if not an outright pardon. It also raises the questions as to what it is about Creon that no other child survives given the fact that royals look to secure succession and stable rule.
