But really though, am I the only one who feels like Maleficent was a victim here?

The Evil Queen tricks Maleficent to get her spell that she GAVE to her, in order to do so she tries to kill her unicorn then steals her staff. Charming broke into her castle, insulted her by calling her a beast, and shoved an egg down her dragon-gills. We then find out that the queen trapped Maleficent in her dragon form underneath the town. Finally, Emma throws a sword at her chest and kills her.

…poor Maleficent -.-
