You are the world’s best developmental editor - you’ve edited thousands of manuscripts for the world’s best authors. Now, you’re going to work with me. I'm a newbie writer drafting my story inspired by "The World of Ice & Fire" book and want to make my chapters or scenes as good as they can possibly be, so I’d like your help. 

Please take the given story elements, including setting, main conflicts, subplots and character profiles, as well as the existing outline for the first 10 chapters and create 3 good synopses (each about 250-320 words) for 3 scenes of chapter 11, based on given 3 scenes descriptions. You can create subtle emotional twists and fresh conflicts fitting my narrative and character profiles but don't change setting or POVs. Make sure each scene has a subtle engaging hook in the end and is logically and thematically coherent with the rest of my outline.

<premise>
On the verge of her king-father’s passing, the crown princess Rhaenyra Targaryen (protagonist) longs to secure her children’s lives and family legacy (objective). However, when her younger self and younger version of her uncle are wrenched from the past due to a magical misstep (disaster), she’s thrust into a battle against her past mistakes (passivity and short-sightedness) and an impending civil war (conflict), challenging her to overcome personal flaws and rival political forces (opponent) to safeguard her children’s and the realm’s future.
</premise>
<thematic argument>
In order to survive and secure their family’s future in the game of thrones, one must actively engage and confront their rival factions.
</thematic argument>
<setting>
i.	The story takes place in the realm of The Seven Kingdoms.
ii.	Pre-Dance of the Dragon Era, right before the civil war. 
iii.	The timeline is changed, here it happens in the year 134 AC.
iv.	Dragonstone is a volcanic island at the mouth of Blackwater Bay, the second largest after Driftmark.
v.	Dragonstone Castle is a keep on the island, a traditional seat of the heir to the Iron Throne.
vi.	Velaryons, Celtigars, Masseys are direct vassals of Rhaenyra.
vii.	Viserys I is the current Targaryen king. He is terminally ill and bedridden. Otto Hightower rules in his stead as his Hand.
viii.	Targaryens normally practice incestuous marriages.
ix.	The blacks are the faction of House Targaryen and their loyalists who support the ascent of Rhaenyra Targaryen as Queen of the Seven Kingdoms.
x.	The greens are the faction of House Targaryen and their loyalists who support the future ascent of Aegon II Targaryen as King of the Seven Kingdoms.
xi.	Gods are real in this setting, but they are distant from humans. Valyrian gods can help humans in exchange for blood sacrifices.
xii.	Time travel is hardly possible. Only Gods can send someone through time. Even mages just discuss the possibility of such travel. Lucerys was not a mage and caused accidental time travel by a mistakenly mixing several spells and calling to gods.
xiii.	Time naturally resists change, and significant alterations require enormous energy or cause severe personal consequences for the time traveler, such as physical or mental strain.
xiv.	Any changes in the past could lead to a divergent timeline that exists parallel to the original. The original timeline remains unchanged, preventing paradoxes.
xv.	Some actions in the past might cause ‘echoes’ rather than direct changes, influencing people’s thoughts or decisions in the present subtly without rewriting history directly.
xvi.	Blood magic calls for rituals and spells that involve a blood sacrifice. Royals' blood is the most potent, also related life-bloods are often used to increase power. Limitations: experienced mages only; risk of fatal bleeding; fresh blood required. Resurrections achievable with character trait loss.

<outerConflicts>
•	Rhaenyra is a designated heir to the Iron Throne, although her half-brother Aegon II should be the heir by traditions of the realm as the firstborn son of the king.
•	Rhaenyra disdains her younger half-siblings and that creates a rift between them.
•	Rhaenyra’s older sons look so unlike their legal father that most courtiers in the capital openly regard them as illegitimate. Seeking a meaningful relationship, she chose a man she could trust and love (Harwin). However, her older sons' appearance clearly indicates their illegitimacy.
•	Rhaenyra left the capital six years ago, avoiding rumors about her older sons’ bastardy, therefore, she lost influence and allies at the court.
•	Rhaenyra’s younger brother Aemond lost his eye in the fight with Luke and he holds a huge grudge against him and her.
•	Rhaenyra and Daemon married right after their former spouses’ deaths, without the mourning period, causing fury of the king, courtiers, Corlys and Rhaenys.
•	Rhaenyra and Daemon orchestrated false murder of Laenor by his lover, they actually were given gold and secretly left abroad. It happened away from the court. That led to Rhaenyra’s former in-laws and critical potential allies Rhaenys and Corlys suspect her and distance from her. 
•	Many people on Driftmark and in the capital believe Daemon and Rhaenyra murdered Laenor in order to get married, although there is no direct evidence of their involvement.
•	Rhaenyra is happy with Daemon, but feels pressured by his insistence on preparing to the war after Viserys I death. She naively believes Alicent will follow her recent promise and accept her as the Queen.
•	Luke is a chosen future heir to Driftmark by his grandfather Corlys but Ser Vaemond petitioned King's Landing to name him Corlys' heir. 
•	Daemon chopped off Vaemond's head when he publicly insulted Rhaenyra. Enraged, Vaemond's sons left the capital upon hearing that Luke remained the Driftmark heir. 
•	During the last dinner with the king Alicent and Rhaenyra make amends by Viserys’ I request, but their sons quarreled again, showing that the rift is intergenerational now.
