Summary
What if Harry was smarter? A little more cruel? What if he figured out how he was to be used as a pawn, and was willing to play along... at least for a little while?
Featuring a Harry Potter with an eidetic memory, proficiency in the mind arts, and most definitely morally grey.
This is my first time writing so please be nice :)

Summary
After the end of the Triwizard Tournament, Harry is alone and struggling to find a way to hang on to his sanity when an unexpected boon walks into his house and kidnaps him to Gringotts. The Most Noble House of Nott is attacked and Theodore is left with nothing but ashes, a single gemstone, and the burning fire of something bigger than himself lodged forever in his soul. Lucius Malfoy suffers a momentary lapse in sanity and raises his wand against the Dark Lord. The lines between light and dark, good and evil, blur together and disappear entirely. All the while, Harry goes searching for who "Just Harry" is and keeps coming back to a dark-eyed Slytherin he never thought he'd call his friend...
