This is a story about harry learning of his heritage due to a lapse in judgement from Hagrid. This leads to a more knowledgeable Harry upon entering Hogwarts. This is a bit of a fanfiction cliche but cliches are cliches for a reason, they're popular. Rated T to be safe for potential later chapters, unlikely to be much more than k . Undecided on pairings, not slash.

Harry finds a portrait that helps him through his struggles and it drastically changes the events.

Having run away Harry finds himself living rough in the forest but he finds something that will help him understand his life and himself. Potential for Vague references to abuse. No pairings yet, won't be slash. Any suggestions welcome and greatly appreciated. No great plan as of yet but I like romance so may slide onto that as long as it does not detect from the story.

What would happen if Harry lost Hagrid in diagon alley and wanders into gringotts? Answer: he gets lots of surprises Powerful Harry, harry/ginny

Just a story I started writing while on a plane I will upload lots of short chapters not sure where it is going Harry makes a mistake at the dursleys and gets surprised starts pre hogwarts May contain hermione and Ron bashing but it will not be too bad dumbledore bashing Discontinued
