Embodying goodness, kindness and compassion, Aurora’s love for her godmother is unconditional, and it is her pure heart and desire to do good which gives her the strength to face evil.
Queen of Ulstead and Aurora’s future mother-in-law, Queen Ingrith (Michelle Pfeiffer)is wicked, cunning and selfish. A worthy adversary to the dark fairy Maleficent, she has an evil plan to divide humans and fairies forever.
