Your task is to convert the following draft outline fine the Save the cat's outline format. Chapter 1. Scene 1. Former Queen Aemma wakes up in some mystical place where she meets the Fourteen Gods: Valyrian Gods of her ancestors. She is given a one chance to go to the mortal plane and help her daughter to strengthen her claim. She is grateful but asks why they do it for her. Gods tell her they doing it for fun, they like to play with humans. Aemma gets through some portal and finds herself in a dirty alley in the center of the King's Landing. More exactly - on one of brothel streets. She disgusted by this sight. She finds out she is unseen to all people and is basically a ghost (but can't move through objects). Going down the street she sees her young daughter Rhaenyra entering one brothel hand in hand with Daemon. They are both in peasant disguise but she recognizes their voices. Aemma is shocked, follows them inside, sees the central hall where naked women dance lewd dances, patrons around drink wine and enjoy the views. Daemon leaves Rhaenyra to look around, he goes to the gallery above, drinks wine a lot, sits and muses about something. Rhaenyra looks around with curiosity but no fear. Eventually, Daemon goes down, takes Rhaenyra by the hand and leads her to the back rooms. Aemma hesitates, she fervently hopes he won't fornicate with her daughter. She ...
CHATBOT: Taking the draft outline you provided, I'll reinterpret this into Blake Snyder's "Save the Cat" beats outline format. "Save the Cat" has 15 key story beats, but your narrative doesn't seem to follow the typical three-act structure Snyder advocates exactly. I'll work with the information given and wrap your narrative around "Save the Cat" as best as I can while adding some hypothetical beats to fall in line with the structure. **Opening Image:** Aemma wakes up in a mystical place, meeting the Fourteen Valyrian Gods, who grant her a chance to aid her daughter (Sets the fantasy tone). **Theme Stated (Happens during the Setup):** The Gods mention they intervene in human affairs for their amusement, hinting at the theme of divine intervention and mortal destinies being influenced by higher beings. **Set-Up:** Aemma ends up in King's Landing and discovers she is a ghost (introduces her ghostly limitations). **Catalyst:** She sees her daughter Rhaenyra with Daemon in a brothel (This starts Aemma's quest). **Debate:** Aemma hesitates to interfere as she witnesses her daughter's scandalous actions (The question of whether she should act). **Break into Two:** After speaking to Daemon, Aemma decides to intervene in the worldly affairs and help her daughter (The shift to active engagement in the plot). **B Story:** This could involve a subplot with Otto Hightower, which eventually intertwines with the main story (Introduces political intrigue). **Fun and Games:** Aemma's ghostly wanderings and eavesdropping in King's Landing (This is where we see the 'promise of the premise' with her invisible interactions). **Midpoint:** Viserys learns of Rhaenyra's indiscretions (The stakes are raised and the situation gets more serious). **Bad Guys Close In:** Otto informs Viserys about Rhaenyra and Daemon; Daemon is reprimanded; Aemma talks to Alicent, feeling sympathy and making promises (Introduces complications and tension). **All Is Lost:** Aemma's realization of the full extent of her daughter's actions and the consequences thereof, including Daemon's future (The low point for Aemma). **Dark Night of the Soul:** Aemma feels lost, her purpose questioned as she navigates through Viserys' potential misguided decisions about Rhaenyra's marriage prospects (The moment of greatest doubt and emotional plight). **Break into Three:** Aemma sees a solution involving Corlys's bastard son and orchestrates his encounter with a dragon; she influences the outcomes to be more favorable for he...
USER: which other outline format may fir better for this story?
CHATBOT: Given the content of your story, which is rich in political intrigue, character interactions, and complex motivations, instead of the highly structured "Save the Cat" method, you might find the Seven-Point Story Structure more fitting. This structure is somewhat more flexible and can better accommodate the intricacies of plots that involve multiple characters with interconnected arcs, like those commonly found in epic fantasy or complex dramas. Here's a summary of the Seven-Point Story Structure: 1. **Hook:** Start with something that grabs the audience's attention. Introduce your protagonist in their initial setting. For your story, it's Aemma waking up in the mystical place and being offered a chance to aid her daughter, setting the stakes. 2. **Plot Turn 1 (The Inciting Incident):** Introduce something new that propels the story forward. Aemma arrives in King's Landing and discovers her ghostly state, which gives her the unique ability to help her daughter unnoticed. 3. **Pinch Point 1:** Apply pressure to the protagonist by introducing a problem or antagonist. Seeing her daughter entering a brothel with Daemon and overhearing political schemes would serve this point well, showing the odds stacked against Rhaenyra. 4. **Midpoint:** The protagonist moves from reaction to action. Aemma decides to take a more active role in guiding her daughter, communicates with Daemon, and later with Viserys. 5. **Pinch Point 2:** Apply further pressure that forces the protagonist to act. Additional problems arise, like Otto Hightower's political moves, Daemon's betrayal of trust, and Rhaenyra's tarnished reputation. 6. **Plot Turn 2 (The Climax):** Equip your protagonist with the final tools/knowledge they need to reach their goal. Aemma learns of Corlys's bastard and orchestrates his encounter with the dragon, consequently influencing the political landscape. 7. **Resolution:** The climax of the story. The consequences of Aemma's impact on the mortal plane are displayed, and she prepares to leave, feeling her influence fading and seeing her mission fulfilled. While the Seven-Point Story Structure provides the backbone for plotting, keep in mind that your story still requires more fleshed-out character development, world-building, and the emotional journeys that engage readers or viewers on a deep level. Because of the serialized nature of your outline indicates a series of chapters that may not follow a linear arc, you might also consider outlining each chapter or scen...
