Summary
"Salazar's worries are not unfounded. Wixen have fought hard for our peace, and we put ourselves in jeopardy every time we reenter the mundane world that we had been a part of not even a decade prior. The mundane people still remember us, still look for us - afraid we will come out of the woodwork to overtake their kingdom. We are the monsters in their cautionary tales. But the Blessed-Born are in danger of dying without us. Wix children will be killed if we fail to save them first."
- Vesta Cordelia Peverell in Grimoire Heart, the Peverell Family Grimoire: Entry number 78With Death comes legacy. But...
But, in time, a legacy can become twisted. Stories will no longer be memories shared with friends and loved ones, but tales whispered ear-to-ear. Stories are changed to fit agendas, and what truly happened is lost - there's no way to tell the truth from the lies. And Salazar Slytherin's legacy, as large and twisted as it is, continues to send ripples throughout history. It just might make Harry crumble underneath its weight.

Summary
I’ll probably never flesh out this story, but it’s always been an idea floating in my head. And I’ve sporadically written scenes so I’ve decided to just publish them as oneshots in this series. The premise is that Harry is sorted in Slytherin and is much more magically powerful in this than in canon.

Summary
"He gave them hope by day.
He gave them power by night.
And none of them ever saw both.""They called him a hero. They never saw the strings in his hands—or the quiet army he built in the shadows."

Summary
Having survived first year oblivious to Dumbledore's machinations, but wiser to the world of wizarding politics and Slytherin Ideals, Harry Potter is eager to start his second year.
Harry still wants to prove himself, while also coming to terms with the concept that he is worthy of unconditional love but that not everyone can be trusted.
Draco still wants to be the best friend that he can, while also developing more of his own identity.
Severus still wants a drink, while also grappling with the knowledge that the Dark Lord definitively knows he's a traitor, but as of yet, Lucius Malfoy does not.
