    Summary

    “No post on Sundays” Uncle Vernon announced happily, “No damn letters today-”
    Something came whizzing down the kitchen chimney as he spoke and caught him sharply on the back of the head. The next moment, thirty or forty letters came pelting out of the fireplace like bullets.
    “That does it!” he snapped, his beady little eyes focused solely on Harry, “It’s you that they want. And they won’t stop coming after us until you’re… gone”.
    Harry didn't like the sound of that.
    “But Vernon, we can’t! You heard what that- that despicable old man told us!”
    “Don’t worry, pet” Vernon said, his nasty grin triumphant, “I’ll leave him someplace so far away that those freaks will never trace him back to us. There’s an institute up north, for these- these hopeless cases and whatnot - St Brutus's Secure Centre for Boys. I’ll leave him there, and then we can get back to our nice, normal life”.

    Or, the one where Harry doesn't attend Hogwarts in first year but finds his way to the wizarding world anyway, and this changes everything.

    Summary

    Horologium Hephaestus Henry Black. A rotund and ridiculous name for the timid and small boy, the youngest of The Most Noble and Ancient House of Black. Horologium, or Harry as he preferred did not like his name, or, truthfully his family. His name had no mythos associated with it, a forgettable constellation truly, lacking any character or symbolism besides a clock or pendulum. He scoured the library looking for anything remotely interesting about his name, and besides being named after a relative, and a constellation, his name held no meaning. Making him the unliked and unmemorable member of his ancient and noble family.

    Summary

    Tom Riddle was looking for the perfect artifacts to house his soul while working at Borgin and Burkes. He didn’t think the Vanishing Cabinet sold to the shop was particularly noteworthy, that was until it began to smoke and Tom found a teenager within who wore Ravenclaw’s Lost Diadem. Even more intriguing was everything in his mind and memories that Tom could use to succeed as the future Dark Lord, and the wayward teen himself who was much more than Tom could have ever imagined.
