Hrm, now that I've thought about it, becoming the tribe leader could've easily been her ultimate goal. If the whole tribe was under her authority, they would never turn against her. I'm starting to think ravaging Anima is her way of keeping them away from Tai and Yang, should they everfind out. Does it make it right, oh hell no. As you've often said she probably left for selfish reasons, and it's starting to look like she actually did. She didn't want to face the tribe's retribution for her "transgressions," so she aspired to become the new chief in order to keep them in line. Of course this pretty much says she had virtually no faith in Tai's ability to defend her or Yang, and she didn't want to fight "her" family, even though said family has destroyed countless others throughout Anima, just shows how twisted her values really are.

So in short, the OP might've been right about Raven's intentions, to a point. If she becomes the Scourge of Anima, then Tai and Yang would be safe. Yeah, real Mom of the Year material there.
