    Summary

    Just like the many amazing Slytherin Harry Potter fics, this is my take on what would happen if Harry Potter were just a little bit smarter, a little bit crueler, and acted a little bit more like the Slytherin we knew he could be.

    Takes inspiration from too many stories to count, but includes tropes like Slytherin Harry, awesome goblins, Dumbledore bashing, and Harry destroying any machinations laid out for him simply by existing and giving things a second thought. He refuses to be anybody's puppet.

    After Harry is introduced to the wizarding world, some red flags are raised and questions left unanswered, so he decides to ditch his babysitter and return to Diagon Alley unsupervised. Harry returns to the bank and finds that Dumbledore has been manipulating everything from behind the scenes. Eager to leave the Dursleys behind, Hadrian - he learned his name was - will do whatever it takes to get out from under Dumbledore's thumb, even if it means walking a darker path than expected of the Wizarding world's Savior.

    We follow Hadrian on his journey as he explores the wixen world, makes new friends, makes new enemies, and makes plans to ensure that he is never used as a pawn again.
