AU. Harry always knew to get out before it hits the fan. After Voldemort's resurrection, he grabs Sirius and leaves Britain for the bigger world on a vacation he wanted all his life. One thing that he missed though, is that with greater gains come greater risks. Artificier!Harry, world exploration, magical races, no bashing. Abandon all cliches, ye who enter here.
Harry's encounter with Voldemort in the end of the first book didn't end like we thought. Riddle didn't pass an opportunity to screw with the boy's brain. In the end, that small difference ended up changing Harry into someone who would become so much more than merely "Dark Lord's equal"...
