Answer:

Tiresias

Step-by-step explanation:

Climax refers to the most important or the most exciting part of the narrative. In the story, "Antigone" the climax arrives when Tiresias who was blind and a soothsayer of Thebes warned Creon of his actions. Towards the end, Creon moves forward to meet Antigone. He walks to her to pardon her of providing the burial rights to her brother. On the other hand, Antigone hangs herself as a self repent. This was the highest point of the story after which the story resolves.
