Chapter Text
“Fame is a fickle thing—one moment,
they lift you up; the next, they pray for your fall.”

Summary:
Harry Potter is done playing by everyone else's rules.
After years of suffering at the hands of the Dursleys, a breaking point pushes him to run. He doesn't care about blood wards, doesn't care about Dumbledore's warnings-he just wants out. But when his magic flares up in his escape, the Ministry reacts swiftly, expelling him from Hogwarts and dragging him to trial. The wizarding world watches, eager to see the so-called Boy Who Lived fall.
But Harry refuses to break.
Cleared of charges but forced to be re-registered at Hogwarts, he expects to return to Gryffindor-only for the Sorting Hat to reveal a truth he once denied. This time, it places him in Slytherin. Surrounded by cunning minds and sharp tongues, Harry must learn to navigate the complexities of Slytherin politics, where loyalty is earned, not given.
Then the Triwizard Tournament is announced.
When the Goblet of Fire spits out his name, Hogwarts turns against him all over again. But Harry is no longer the reckless boy they thought they knew. With his new housemates at his side, he will master the art of survival, deception, and power-not just to win the tournament, but to ensure that no one ever controls his fate again.
