A bump from the bike landing on a stretch of patchy cobblestone road soon woke up Harry in a start and jerk. Hagrid soon pulled the bike over and got off the bike and Harry soon followed his example. Soon as the two were getting off the bike it shrunk to the size of a dinky toy. Hagrid picked up the bike but held it for a second while looking at it. Almost as if he was contemplating something before passing it to Harry. He looked downright confused by the action especially since he had no reason or was of age to be able to drive it.
Hagrid shrugged before explaining to a confused Harry."The bike was from a one-time friend of your parents, sure he betrayed them for Who-Must-Not-Named. Which resulted in them getting killed by that dark lord. So as I see it since none of them are here to claim the bike and I really don't use it often enough to worth the trouble of using it. I figured in no harm giving it to you since you would have gotten by now anyways if you were raised by your parents and the man did not betray them." Harry was curious at the betraying comments but figured that might get answered later or maybe ask at a different date since it seemed to bug the half-giant.
He soon was pulling out the letter he kept in his pocket since leaving the shack, from the old and extremely big sweater he got from Dudley as a handy down. He read the full thing carefully so as not to miss a thing. Seeing the list of what was needed for a first-year student at Hogwarts. Which reading the list now was making him more and more excited about going. The letter of what they needed was formatted into a simple list.

Harry was right down confused as to where by everything he needed or where to get the money to buy such supplies since he figured this wouldn't be cheap. Especially since London doesn't cater to wizards or witches. He thought about it and figured that Hagrid would take him somewhere that he could get everything and a few extra books to gather more knowledge about his new way of living. So he shrugged and put his letter back in his pocket. Before noticing Hagrid was now walking away from where he was still standing in the alley. so Harry ran to catch up to the man who was footsteps were almost 5 of Harry's. Hagrid was soon leading him up to a solid black building that had the sign above it called the Leaky Cauldron. Once again Hagrid had to duck into the building due to his giant frame.
As they entered the building Harry had to cough it seemed to be filled with the smoke of something that smelled nasty and was making him a bit green in the gills. It also bugged his eyes and nose causing his eyes to water a tiny bit. All the while making his throat burn as it went down into his small lungs. Everyone in the building seemed to stop and stare at them while they came in through the door. Some sure went back to their business but others were focused on the pair since it was weird seeing Hagrid with anyone besides other Professors from the school. Now he seemed to be helping the first years who were new to the world of magic. Yet he was not really knowledgeable or most reliable for it. Yet it seemed this student must be special in a way.
The bartender seemed to be the loudest as he called to Hagrid." Welcome back Hagrid also welcome young man to the Leaky Cauldron I am the owner Tom. Are you here for a drink before you head shopping Hagrid?" He made a motion to not say much motion it seemed to Hagrid and looked at Harry as he said it. Harry figured that the man knew who he was and was concerned about what would happen if he was found out. Which Harry was thankful for since that be unwarranted attention and he did not like that at all. Harry did not realize that his scar was world-famous to the magical world.
Hagrid seemed to get the message right as he was about to talk and changed his mind about what he was going to say. And calmly said to Tom." Not this time Tom, maybe for lunch or something. I have to help this young man find his new stuff for the first year at Hogwarts. Mr. Evensburg here gets ready for school."
Hagrid and Harry soon slipped out a door on the far wall and were at a wall of brick in what seemed a private guardian. This one was actually Hagrids size and did not have to shuffle through like most other doors. Hagrid touched six different colored bricks in a special order it seemed. Harry memorized that for future reference. Soon the wall split apart as the bricks folded into each other. Harry did notice that the bricks were level with his head so adults and kids could do this if they needed to later on. Sure enough to Harry's surprise an entire street or streets were there in front of them."Welcome, Harry to Diagon Alley Wizarding market of London. Honestly the best alley of them all in the world." Hagrid seemed to boast the fact of where they were. As if the Alley was the best thing in the magical world, well besides Dumbledore and Hogwarts.
As they walked down the street Harry looked at every building and person memorizing faces and the names of the stores for later when he had to go shopping. He chuckled at a little stand that was like a popcorn maker and a tiny dragon was roasting lots of nuts or something to make them warm or something.
He was also keeping an ear on what Hagrid was saying as they walked down the alley. Hagrid was explaining what each store did and sold or if the products were any good. He soon noticed they were walking up to a giant white building in which the entire building seemed to be lopsided or twisting much like the rest of the alley but more extreme. This building also seemed to be the best-kept building as it was the cleanest it seemed...
Hagrid soon told him why that was."Welcome to Gringotts bank, the wizarding bank of the United Kingdom. The second safest place in the wizarding world if you need protection. Second only to Hogwarts, of course. Before we go anywhere else in the alley. We need you to get some money and here is the place to do it. We have to stop here first to gather some money for your supplies and such."
Harry simply shrugged and soon walked into the bank with him. He noticed a family that seemed really out of place and a girl with wild but beautiful brown hair. He only noticed them because of the fact of their clothing and how the parents were getting a lesson it seemed on the money.
She seemed to be studying the bank just like he was doing. The girl was only really though looking at the architecture of the building, more than likely trying to figure out how it was still standing. Her parents seemed to be transferring some money into some type of coins. Which it seemed to Harry were called Galleons for the gold ones. Sickles for the silver and Knutz for the bronze or brass looking ones. It seemed for every 100 Knutz is a Sickle and every 100 Sickle was a Galleon. Which was rather straightforward for most to understand since it was almost like non-magical money.
Harry heard the goblin call them the Granger family and committed them all to memory for some reason. He never really did this with people he thought he never would interact with. Yet there was something about the bushy-haired girl that caught his interest and felt drawn to her in a way. Hagrid leaned down and whispered in his ear as quietly as he could."These are goblins, Harry. Cleaver as they come, not the most friendliest of creatures though. Never disrespect a goblin if they are angry it might be the last thing you do. Yet no one better to keep your money and family riches safe."
Harry only nodded before forming opinions to try and be respectful to them and remove the stigma. It seemed between humans and other magical races. Since he noticed some glares from other wizards were directed to Hagrid as well as they walked down the bank. It seemed that Wizards did not trust the goblins and seemed to think they are above them.
He and Hagrid went over to a Goblin that did not seem busy and Hagrid was about to interrupt what he was doing. When Harry heard the goblin counting to himself and looked at them paused to look at them. Harry grabbed Hagrids hand to stop him after reading his name tag, the goblin was a minor manager to accounts.
The goblin finished his counting before looking at them then at the rubies he was counting. Harry caught on and smiled as he told the goblin." There were 481 rubies sir." The goblin nodded wrote it down while dumping them in a bag. Before pulling out another one and soon went back to counting. Hagrid was confused and was about to interrupt again, yet the pull of his arm seemed to stop him. Now he looked at Harry really confused yet curious as to what the teen was up to so he waited as Harry was doing whatever he was doing...
Sure enough at the end of counting, the goblin looked to Harry who smiled and told him."There were 709 emeralds in that bag Sir Boltsnapper." The Goblin was surprised the wizard even used his name. But moved the emeralds into the bag and pulled out another and dumped rubies. Then processed to start counting once again.
Blotsnapper counted them and looked to Harry as if he was waiting for the boy to respond. Harry almost laughed as told the goblin the amount, even if the goblin did try to trick him this time."Sir Blotsnapper, You have just counted 2010 diamonds, while faking to miscount a few times and put some back. With the 781 rubies and 709 emeralds. You have a total of 3200 gems there in that bag. Whoever account that belongs to is a very lucky person. Especially having a great accountant such as yourself."
The goblin was impressed that someone counted faster than they do since he noticed Harry had managed it on the Diamonds, Emeralds, and the Rubies. He turned to a shadow behind him and nodded before stepping away while saying."Someone who better equipped to help you Mr. Potter will be here soon. I must be going now please wait for someone to help you it won't be long I promise."
Harry smiled and said in English remember in the warning on the door and said a simple phrase that came to mind."May your gold flourish and your enemy's blood pour like molten gold."
This seemed to impress the goblin who walked away with a smile into the shadows. While the rest of the goblins in earshot were shocked by the fact a child would be that respectful or give the proper greeting as if he was born speaking goblin. The phrase may lose some meaning to them in English but it was still shocking to hear it from a wizard at all. Since they have been treated as lower class than the most average wizard especially from the Pureblood wizards.
Suddenly out of the Shadow a new goblin seemed to be extremely important more so than the rest. Cause as soon as he appeared the others around bowed their heads before continuing their tasks or helping whoever they were helping.
The goblin came forward and sat down before looking at Harry. He asked in simple English yet his voice was thick and had a raspy voice to it, considering the scars on his face showed he was once a warrior to the Goblins. So his voice may have been affected by a wound unseen thanks to the suit and collar of the goblin."Why did you not just ask your question when you saw teller Boltsnapper. Especially when he first looked at you as if waiting for the question,? Or how you gave him the proper goblin farewell when you seem new to the world? Even if you were born and raised for 15 months in the world. please explain such things to me."
Harry smiled before explaining his reasons for doing what he did the best he could."I figured his task was important to his job, while we have all the time in the world since it is still early in the morning and have all day. I figured we could wait and let Assistant Manager Boltsnapper finish his task. Then he looked at me and had a challenge in his eyes. I noticed this and since I was able to count the rubies, I simply gave him the answer he was looking for from me with his small challenge. This happened all three times he counted the gems. Once again I am not worried about time Master goblin. As for the farewell, I figured not a lot of wizards or humans see you as equal. To me that is a dumb idea in my personal opinion, since your race is in charge of keeping our money safe and for even helping wizarding community. You should be respected not treated as a lower beings as I have noticed a few in the bank have done. Such is the reason I treated him like how I wanted to be treated by a fellow equal or even better than equals."
Hagrid and the goblins in ear shot where impressed and quiet surprised that here was a wizard that thought of them as equal or maybe better than wizards. Yet the most interesting part was the wizard who thinks this way is only 11. The goblin smiled and showed a row of sharp teeth one or two chipped while some were covered in gold showing his status.
All before saying with a bit of chuckle almost near a laugh."Now that it is all explained and very well done mind you. How may we at Gringotts help you today Mr. Potter, Mr. Hagrid?"
Hagrid was about to answer but harry again beat him too it since the man was still in a bit of shock it seemed."I would like to see my family accountant. Since I am rejoining the world I figured that whoever is in charge and I would need to talk about said accounts. I think it would also be a good idea to know if my parents left me anything. While we do that Hagrid can get whatever he needs to."
The goblin smiled and bowed before looking to Hagrid with a bit of sharper look since he was here on either school or the meddlers business."Well Rubeus Hagrid how may we at Gringotts help you today? While your young friend Harry here meets with his account manager."
Hagrid was a bit shocked since Harry was only supposed to see his trust vault. He did not know what to do now that he and Harry would be separated. He shrugged as he cast out the thoughts out of his mind. All before digging in a few pockets looking for something, before finally pulling out a letter and telling him. All in a quiet for him whisper, hoping Hary did not hear it. "I have permission from Albus Dumbledore to withdraw. You-Know-What out of Vault, You-Know-What."
The goblin frowned, he really hated Dumbledore to his core. Actually, most of the goblins did hate the man to their cores. He snapped his fingers and a smaller goblin appeared and bowed politely and yet there was frown on his face in doing this task since Dumbledores name came up. The sharply-dressed Goblin said to Hagrid." GripHook here will take you there to that vault. Please follow him, Mr. Hagrid. It seems me and Mr. Potter have other business to discuss as I bring him to his account manager."
As Hagrid left he looked back at Harry who smiled and nodded with a gentle shooing motion to show he was okay. Before turning back to the goblin in front of him and to go gather something from the Vaults.
After Hagrid left Harry turned to the Goblin in front of him and listened as he cursed about Dumbledore's Meddling in things he shouldn't be meddling in all in the while of the goblin tongue not realizing he could understand everything the goblin said.
"Master Goblin I do not mean to be rude or interrupting you cursing the man, but may we please go meet my account Manager." Harry politely inquired as he knew time was money for them.
The Goblin smiled after realizing he understood Gobbledegook as if he was speaking English. He came around the front and soon motioned for Harry to follow him to a different room. Which was off to the side and down a big hallway. With extremely dark indents every few feet. As they walked Harry could feel eyes on him from somewhere following them to their destination.
They soon came up to some giant silver doors that held the same poem as the main doors did then followed by a goblins name. 'Gringotts Manager BleedDirk the 3rd Account Manager to Potter Family.'
The goblin opened the door and soon walked over to the big desk and sat on the chair behind the desk and looked at Harry. Which caused Harry to widen his eyes in shock. Yet soon smiled at the goblin in understanding why he came to the front and pretended to be only the Master bank Goblin.
The goblin introduced himself finally in a more normal tone of voice." Hello Harry James Potter, My name is BleedDirk the 3rd. I am the Account Manager for the Potter Family. May your Vaults flow and your Businesses flourish. I am surprised to see you here so soon, but I guess now is better than ever. You were supposed to come in with your parents at age 17 but since you are the last of the family. Well lets just say you can deal with now instead due to some legal and other goat shit the magical world thinks is necessary."
Harry was surprised to the core the goblin was his account Manager but then again maybe the other goblin was a test to see if he true or kind or something along the lines. Or maybe he was just that lucky to go to that goblin.
Harry spoke with respect and like an equal, he thought BleedDirk was equal to him."May your gold pile high and your enemies wither in fear from your Axe and spear."
The Goblin offered a hand to Harry in which he shook without a second thought. BleedDirk spoke once again with a purpose to dig for the answers." Now what it is it you would like to do today Mr. Potter?"
Harry thought for a second before remembering what Dredd had told him about the old families of magical Britain and the world. Such as the lines in the wizarding world and wills of his parents if they had one."Well, there are three things I am hoping to do today if that is okay with you? First I would like to claim any houses I am heir to, even more than the Potter one if any. Also, while unsealing and read my parents will if they had one written up before they died. While looking at all fiances of my family or families if there is any still left to fix and move around."
BleedDirk was surprised that Harry wanted to see and do all that. It was not every common an 11-year-old would want to do such things or have the knowledge to do so. It could be done of course but might reveal more things than necessary or make the boy a bigot like the rest of the wizarding society. He was hoping the last thought would not come true.
He soon snapped his finger and a long box about a foot in length, width, and depth soon appeared. He ran a finger down it and after some sounds coming from the box. He then opened the box and pulled out two items, soon there was a solid white paper not parchment and a dirk that was made of a metal Harry couldn't identify at all. Yet could tell t was well crafted by a master.
BleedDirk smiled before explaining what he wanted Harry to do."What you requested requires you to cut the palm of your hand and then let the blood fall to the paper till enough has fallen. Now don't worry about the cut, it will heal after enough blood is on the paper. Also, it removes any charms or blocks on you already. Next will make you an adult in the eyes of the wizarding world but no one will know unless they look for it. Now you're up, unless you're changing your mind of course?" He said the last bit with a goblin smirk to the young boy. While issuing the challenge to the last Potter in front of him.
Harry saw the challenge and was not ready to back down. He did see a few cons to what was about to happen, yet they were way lower than the pros to it all. So he knew he had to do it and was ready to be free. He grabbed the Dirk and soon ran the blade along the palm of his hand.
BleedDirk was impressed that Harry did not make a sound or flinch from the blade. He put the blade back and held his hand over the paper and watched as the blood flowed down onto the paper. Soon after about 30ish drops of blood fell onto the paper. The blood stopped flowing and the paper started to glow in a golden color. Harry also saw a bunch of glowing come from his body in a few places one was his chest and the other his stomach. He looked to the goblin with confusion in his eyes. That was till he noticed the same expression on BleedDirks face,
Who was amazed at what he was reading by the looks of the results on the paper. Harry had to ask."Is there something wrong Master BleedDirk? Is there something the matter with the results?"
BleedDirk looked up after he had finished reading the paper and told him simply the truth since he deserved to know."I am actually shocked by your family lines is all. I am for the first time in my life as the Potter Family Manager. I'm actually underqualified to be your account Manager. I am going to have to call in the Goblin King. Especially since one of your family lines is one only he can deal with as was agreed at the time of the creation of the vault. His name is Olvandi the 6th grandson of Gringotts the creator of the bank. He will be here shortly. I will also be here since I am the Manager of the Potter vaults and we have to talk about that as well. In the meanwhile, I can give you the will of your parents. Which was sealed by Albus to many names Dumbledore. Known to the goblins as the meddler of no good."
The goblin disappeared for a while but not before handing the will to Harry. While Harry read while the goblin was gone. Realizing this very well might change everything about him. Or his opinions of the magical world it self.

There were a few others that he read but since he read them he will remember them. He saw something about it due to alliances and other droble he did not understand yet. The last one made him chuckle for a while though.
To Albus To-Many-Names-Dumbledore the Meddler: We leave you with this. 1 single Kuntz and a restraining order against harry by magic you can not be within 100 hundred feet of him If you are you will be arrested and charged with breaking the Claus.

Harry was right down pissed at how his life ended up. He was never supposed to be at that hell hole for the years he was there. The rituals were confusing but he would have to as BleedDirk and Olvandi about them. He saw some more stuff there for him to read. Not realizing he was slowly being covered in magic and the room was being turned into a small windstorm.

Godric's Hollow
Potter Manner- Northampton- England
Beach Vacation House-Potters Cove-Australia

Lily's Pad Condo in London
Banff?
Harry was surprised by the fact he owned his Aunt's and Uncle's house and was forced to live like a slave. Oh, he was going to have fun with that if he ever saw them again. Then again with these other properties, he will never have to see them again it seemed.
He finished reading the Last four lines of the will
By signing this Last Will and Testament, We vow everything said and written is the truth and written free of mind and spells.
James Charlus Potter and Lily Rose Potter Nee Evans
Witness: Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore
Gringotts Official Witness: Olvandi the 6th Goblin Leader of the Nations.
Harry was now right down angry. Angrier than he has ever been in such a long time. Here he was supposed to be living with these other witches and Wizards and Dumbledore had ineffectively kidnapped him which caused him to be a slave to his own relatives. Oh, there was going to be hell when he was done with this meeting and he will take it out on the meddler that is for sure. Not realizing the magical storm he was causing was shaking the entire bank and causing lots of damage in his rage. Making many wizards flee the bank in fear of the magic.
Harry didn't notice in his fit of anger that the two goblins had come in the room and were watching his fit of anger both with wide eyes and both paling a bit. The magic swirling around Harry was amazing, they have never seen so much in an accidental use before or one even on purpose. He was glowing a bright green and yellow and the winds were close to tearing the room apart. Hell, they sure they heard a dragon's roar coming from his magic. This should be impossible as Magic never mage a sound besides after-effects of spells or transportation.
BleedDirk yelled as loud as he could at Harry in the hope to calm him down."Harry Potter Please stop you will destroy the bank if you continue this way. We as the Goblin Nation understand your anger and will work to get it to fix now please stop the Goblin King is here to see you like I said he would." This was barely heard it seemed but slowly Harry soon was calming down and the magic soon disappeared as soon as it came. Which even to goblins who are warriors they knew they found a leader in the 11-year-old boy. One who will either be the savior of the magical world or the destroyer, hell he already has the power to do it. They will stand by him as their families always have though since the alliance that formed the bank was formed.
The goblin king Olvandi was the one who strode forward first."Lord Potter, I am Olvandi the leader of the goblin Nations. I want to extend my hand to you as a friend. Your enemies will be ours till the end of time. As was in the past we stand by your family now till there is peace across upon the lands."
Harry who was recovering from his anger was shocked by this statement. He was a friend of the Goblin Nation. How was that even possible he has only been in the bank for a total of maybe a half hour. He looked to the leader and bowed his head and shook his hand as he greeted him with respect."Your majesty, I hope your gold piles extend to the sky and the blood of your enemies flow like rivers down to the oceans of already filled with our enemy's blood."
Harry never realized they were speaking in Gobbledegook as if it was second nature or he was born to speak it.
Olvandi was amazed by how well the boy spoke smiled showing his teeth which some had gold covering them the others were chipped and some looked even made of diamonds. He motioned back to the seat, and as Harry sat in the seat he spoke again to Harry."Well met Lord Potter, Bank Manager BleedDirk here had come to get me due to what your Inertance test revealed. The results raised many questions but also some answers as well since we have been curious as to when they would surface again."
Harry was confused and asked the question Olvandi was waiting for since he spoke in a small riddle."First, before we continue, please call me Harry I maybe a Lord in our society. But we are friends here or I hope we are. Titles are meaningless between friends. Also, What are your concerns about the lordships you have found?"
Olvandi smiled and just waved his hand in agreement."As we are on a friendly basis Harry please call me Olvandi and BleedDrik by our names not titles. What we found is that you are the head of not one but actually ten houses Noble and most Ancient houses. While being the presumptive heir of one more Noble and Ancient house. The houses you are now lord of are as followed. Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, Slytherin. They are the houses that created Hogwarts school. Peverell, Potter, Lefay, Dracul, Pendragon, and Evans. While you are the presumptive heir to the House of Black. Along with all the properties and riches that come with such houses. Which is more than any in anyone who banks here mind you or maybe anyone who has ever tried to claim some of the families, but the house's magic has always rejected them. You are the first heir in which the other houses magic has accepted all at once since all the houses founded, but they all at the time had heirs of course so you are truly an enigma of the magical and muggle world."
He let those names and what he said to sink into Harry's mind. He watched as Harry turned to a pale white as if he became a ghost and started to go still. He was a bit worried the shock may have killed the small boy.
Harry was in shock from what he heard he was the Lord of Hogwarts and 6 other houses including his own. He knew this would cause so much hell everywhere. He paused though on Black house. Especially since he was curious about how he was the Heir to that house He wasn't related to the house or so he thought...
He swallowed a big gulp before asking a few questions that were on his mind."So wait I am the Lord of Hogwarts? Also, Pendragon isn't that the fabled king King Arthur of Camelot? How is my mother's line a Noble and Ancient house she was a non-magical born witch? Who are the Pervell and Dracul lines and isn't Sirius Black the head of the Black House. Since he is the older one and true Black family member I have no Black blood in me I think."
Olvandi was amazed that Harry only asked about them and Not about the Dark witch Morgana Le-fey. Especially since most wizards would freak if they found out about such relation. He explained as best as he could guess of how they became into one person."Well from what we can tell is That Morgana had two children before she disappeared from our world after being heavily wounded in a battle. One would later become Salazar Slytherin head of the Slytherin house of Hogwarts. The other became his counterpart In Godric Gryffindor which of course is head of Gryffindor of Hogwarts. They both Married the other founders Rowena Ravenclaw and Helga Hufflepuff. Rowena came from somewhere in central Oceania we figure near what is now Queensland. While Helga was from North America before settlers came. She has a different legend of her own. After they built the school it is believed that Salazar left the school and roamed the world after a big fight with the other founders. We figure that is false since the goblins were close to all the founders since they were of Morgana's line. We figure his and Helga Hufflepuff's children later became the three Peverell brothers in the legend of the Beetle and the Bard which is considered a children's story." He paused to gather his breath before continuing.
"Now the Peverell family is one filled with tragic and bloody messages. The first Perverell man known as Antioch Peverell before the event actually later became the Dracul line as well due to him contracting vampirism. Which makes you the first human born of the line in the world. Yet he was said to be killed because of death giving him the elder wand and him killing a different wizard because he insulted him in the past. Then someone supposedly killed him in his sleep and took the wand. Yet he was already a vampire so he did not die in such away. The next brother was Cadmus Peverell which soon became the Evans who was a line filled with Squib or more so his daughter did. He had only one daughter later before tragedy struck. When he met death after his brother. He had asked for something to revive the dead. Yet this was his downfall when his dead wife came back to life. she was depressed about being alive and later killed herself in which he followed her. Their child later again became a squib. Or in better terms a magical person with very little magic to the point of being a muggle."
Harry interrupted him quickly with a hand up to stop him."Please Olvandi please refer to them as No-mage, since muggles is a racist term and wrong. They are anything but what muggle describes, Do think wizards can travel around the world in 19 hours on a broom. Or make something fly to the moon or fly faster than almost twice the speed of sound. I really really doubt wizards can. So no muggles are not lower than us they are like you they are equals or better than wizards. I despise the way the wizarding world is running and allows such disgrace in it, that will be something I wanna change later in life and will do anything to do such a thing."
Olvandi was surprised but nodded since the goblins do work with them ."Sorry I mean to say they became No-mage somewhere along the line. I believe your mother's father was from that squib family, well anyway she had her bloodline fixed and she became the new head even if she never claimed it. Now for the last brother of the Peverell family. Ignotus Peverell the most humble and wisest of the story. His line survived as magical and later became the Potter's. Yet when death asked him for what he wanted he asked for a piece of his cloak. One that later became the only true invisibility cloak. One that would be the one everyone passed down to the next head of the family. So there is the connection to the families in a sense for you now to how they connect to each other. For the Pendragon line, it is very simple who do you think was the father of Salazar and Godric? Yes, it was actually Arthur Pendragon, Who everyone thinks fell eventually fell from grace and slept with his half-sister. The two were later born and yes they were twins. Yet also very different from the other, they were the farthest thing from what you would expect from twins. Unlike those Weasley boys, you will meet in school in a month's time. They have provided some laughs for our nation as we have heard of their pranks and wit of twin speak." He paused and chuckled at his private joke. He soon was continuing his explaining the lines.
"The Black Heir is a lot more complicated it seems. Do you know how you received the scar on your head?" The goblin asked since it might help explain things about paled again and nodded before explaining that evening."I have a photographic memory and have perfect recall as well. I first remember the loud noise as the wards fell. Then the shouts for my father for my mom to take me and run as fast as she could. Then silence from my father as a body fell. Sure enough, there was some booming of my baby room door as my mom casted a bunch of charms and chanted a ritual I think. Then the door blew in and was shattered. The next thing I remember is seeing my mother take a green spell to the back as she protected me from whoever was attacking. She fell dead to the floor as I watched, I turned back as I heard a voice say the killing spell, all the while looking down a bone-white wand before a flash of green was all I saw. I heard a scream from the man who tried to kill me and then I blacked out for a while. Till a black-haired man held my mother and cried came to the house and woke me up."
The goblins were amazed even with that kind of memory the brain would try to block the traumatic experience especially at a young age of a year and three months old. Yet everything he said was what people figured happened and his brain was still able to keep that knowledge available. Olvandi decided to continue the tale of the family Black."Well as you read in your Parents Will. your Godfather is Sirius Black even if he is also your second cousin. As your Grandmother was his aunt. Anyways, he has been in the Magical prison of magical Britain. It is called Azkaban, a dark and hopeless place made out of a magical stone that has poison on the floor and walls in which contact makes the mind be open and easy to access for mind magic. He was sent there for the murder of your parents. Also for the murder of another friend named Peter Pettigrew, he and 12 No-mage's all that was left of Peter was his left pinky finger. So why only a finger if he were killed not more of him a blasting hex would have left more of him there. The reason people think he betrayed your family is that they were in hiding from a dark wizard named Voldemort. He was supposed to be the secret keeper as to where they were hiding. Though we as the goblin race feel this is wrong for a few reasons." He held three of his fingers before continuing.
"One: he had taken the Godfather ritual and if he had betrayed your parents then there is no way he would still be alive since it would kill him for betraying you or them. Since that is an oath on his magic and life. Then also as a ba person with Black blood, there was a spell casted by the first black long ago. It means nothing worse than a stunner can be casted or any act of betrayal to any family. If you do magic will kill the same time the spell leaves their wand.
Two: He was actually never given a trial, for the crimes that he so-called committed. So in our standing point, he is still Lord Black. Since he is the last of males and the oldest of the current family. So until the ministry has proof of him committing the crimes. He is innocent in the eyes of the goblin nation.
Three: He made you his Heir of the house of Black Even if you both have the right to claim the head of house right now. That also shows he sees you as his family. Family enough to see you as worthy of being the new head of the Family once he passes on. Or if you really want to you can challenge him for the title."
Harry was using all the memories of the lawyer books he had read from his uncle when he didn't notice and soon came up with a plan. He voiced it very quickly to the Goblin King." Is there any way to present my parent's will to someone in the Ministry? Someone who is in charge of law enforcement or something that will take it seriously? Pun intended. Who would be able to gather evidence of him being set up for these crimes? There has to be a way to get him free since he is innocent as we are both thinking."
Both the goblins were surprised that Harry would want to act on this so fast they never expected it from an 11-year-old. They were sure he would want to think about it for a while. They had noticed that the boy was smaller than most 11-year-olds so maybe something, where he was staying, was the reason for the reason e grew up so quick.
Then again the photographic memory helps too if he was a big reader. Olvandi looked to BleedDirk, who understood completely since he was thinking the same thing as his leader. He left the room very quickly and quietly for who knows what but will be found out looked to the boy and smiled before nodding and answering his questions."Yes Harry, there is someone we can call to assist you. Her name is Amelia Bones."
