Antigone

The character that generated the most emotional response for me was Antigone.

Konstantine was on a quest for a mother's love which he mistaken for Nina. Sorin represents someone who hasn't fulfilled their dreams- simply, regret. Masha represents depression. Ismene represents conformity. So as yo
