The 'initial incident' is the first significant action in the story. In the case of the play 'Antigone' it's Antigone's mention of the decree by Theban King Creon. The King decrees that only those who were loyal to Thebes in the recent conflict with Argos are to be given proper burial. This decree is contrary to the god-given rules of preparation of the body for its journey to the realms of the god of the underworld.
