Her motives and her priorities are just all over the wall after 1. Let me break it down:
It starts with Birth by Sleep, where her motives are basically trying to harass and capture Aurora just like in the movie. Evidently, Xehanort came in and he (at least I hope to god it's him that's telling her) tells her about the worlds outside of his own, and evidently, the 7 Princesses of Light to set up his scheme. She (just like everyone else in this goddamn game) is just a pawn in Xehanort's worldwide game of chess.
Then KH1's motives were as clear as day. Her goal is to capture the 7 Princesses of Heart and conquer all the worlds with the help of the Heartless. And by doing this she rallied together the other Disney villains around the world, for her plan that benefits both her and them. In the mix, she manipulated Riku and captured Kairi. Although I don't know what drove her to Radiant Garden, but I assume after Ansem...or Xehanort? summoned the Heartless to the RoL, dooming the world, Maleficent stepped in and...I assume, took control of the Heartless and made Radiant Garden...or Hollow Bastion her empire.
After all of that...I don't know what the hell her plans are. So, she gets revived through the Fairies' memories of her, and she...wants to take over Disney Castle...for some reason. Like...I don't know what interest she has with it. Anyway, basically her motives in KH2 were...just to hunt for a new castle? I mean...she hasn't done much that would prove otherwise, like...she WANTS the Castle that Never Was, if it's any indication.
And then her motives become even more wonkey in Re:Coded and DDD. Pete went into Disney Castle...for some reason (How the hell did he even get in? I thought the Cornerstone of Light protects the town from darkness...and doesn't Pete basically have dark powers and darkness in his heart) and then got sucked into Jiminy's Journal. She called Maleficent...who teleports in...and they make it out as if she can't teleport out...I guess? And then comes her motive throughout Re:Coded and DDD to...try to take not only the castle, but to take the data within Jiminy's Journal?
Is...there some sort of reason she WANTS the data? Or even know HOW she can get the data? Or HOW she could work it? I highly doubt someone from the middle ages would know something like that. I'm assuming she wants the data so she could...make copies of the data within the journal so she...I'M LOST HERE. I legit don't really know what's her game with the datascape.
And FINALLY, we've gone to her current motive in KH3: To...completely forget EVERYTHING that happened in Re:Coded and DDD, and move on to get to box. HOW DOES SHE KNOW ABOUT THE BOX IN THE FIRST PLACE, ANYWAY? AND WHAT DOES SHE EVEN WANT WITH IT? Is there some KHX thing that makes her want the box? Because...I don't even WANT to touch her motives in KHX. It doesn't even make any sense JUST LIKE HALF, IF NOT ALL OF THE SERIES.
So like...what the hell does she even want at this point? I've lost track. Her story is just...a MESS.
