Eventually Aurora meets Prince Eric- I mean Philip, and the two quickly fall in love. Aurora returns to the fairies cottage to find out that she is a princess and has to marry a prince.

Personality
Maleficent is very evil and is perhaps the most powerful disney villain. Usually she takes things seriously, evidently whenever Ursula comes up with some dumb scheme. She usually tolerates her roommate, but she once went so far as to try to kill her because she was snoring too loud. However she does have a sense of humor, albiet a very dark one.
