30 parts Ongoing C O N C E P T:
"The mother whom you think you know, the one who raised you up from the moment you could understand and remember things, Mal, is not your mother. It was Auradon's replacement of your mother, sculpted to how they wanted the 'Mistress of all Evil' to be like, like the one of lies they hear in the stories about her. They didn't believe in her kindness, Mal. And as such, in order for their version of her to be proved true to all, the authorities of Auradon made a decision...
They broke our family up, but that wasn't what was worst, Mali...
...They took her.
Auradon has your real mother, Mal.
Your only, true mother...
The true Maleficent."
