Summary
In the sterile, cookie-cutter world of Privet Drive, Harry Potter is a "freak" whose only refuge is the dirt beneath his fingernails.
While his relatives, the Dursleys, view his forced gardening as a menial chore, Harry finds a rare, rhythmic peace in the soil. This quiet obsession leads him to the school library, where he bypasses children’s stories for heavy tomes on Botany, Eastern Medicine, and Toxicology. He begins to see the world not as a suburban wasteland, but as a vast, living pharmacy of potential cures and lethal secrets.
Or where Harry learns to harness and develop his potential earlier, with the assistance of an old lady who has just moved into the peaceful neighborhood of Privet Drive.

Summary
"The Hollow Hearth remembers you. Come home."
Harry awoke with a gasp, his heart hammering, and the weight of the dream still pressing against his chest. He sat up slowly, nose prickling from the frosty scent of the magic.
His fingers were filthy with soil, the dirt packed under his fingernails.
When Harry becomes Lord Potter he discovers a legacy he never knew he had. Harry is balancing being called home, understanding what magic really means, the politics of the Wizengamot and figuring out his relationships.
A story about old magic, rituals, politics, and having to make hard choices.

Bookmarker's Notes
Omg Incredible world building. LOVE. The war is over. Harry’s found out he’s a lord & has inherited a seat on wizengamot, a property / family home, rental properties, an elf & a role as a keeper of the wheel specific to Samhain.
The wheel relates to seasons of the year & magic. Draco, Susan bones, Theo & other each have a specific festival / day for which they are keeper.This is because their inheritance/ family magics.
Regulus black had an affair in France at 18 & a child Orion was born. he’s now taken over as lord black. He was raised in France by elderly black. He’s also a keeper of the wheel. He’s asked Narcissa to help him select a wife for an arranged marriage.Harry’s slowly learning about his family, his properties etc with Draco & Neville’s help.
Harry fell in love w Draco but found out he was engaged to Astoria greengrass. He’s feeling very betrayed. Draco thought he knew + 2 keepers of the wheel should not marry & have babies as it’s seen as being greedy & hoarding magic.
Harry’s reached out to Theo nott at Draco’s suggestion for help with runes & sigils. . Harry thinks Theo is brilliant. Harry invited Theo to his to help w runes he’s seen. This revealed private letters Theo has encouraged him to save & shared w him he should ask goblins if there r fam portraits of his folks at gringotts for more info on what happened when they fled to godrics hollow.
Harry’s had bill weasley help him when he went to his family house the first time.He’s tried to shares these experiences with Ron, hermionine & Ginny. Ron is jealous & acting like a prat. Hermionine heard bill & Harry talking about Harry giving blood to the wards for entry etc Both Ron & hermionine tell Harry they suspect he’s going dark & forgetting about them.
Wizengamot: Everyone expects Harry to be reformist vs Draco & Theo to be conservative. But Harry is worried that the reformist position of denying the importance of the old magic rituals &’old ways is impacting on the birth rates of magical Britain & loss of magic in general. He’s worried this will seem to everyone that he has indeed gone dark as this is similar to voldys position. He Draco Orion & Daphne are planning to form A centrist / grey voting bloc. Harry has decided he wants to champion schools for younger wixen so everyone starts at hogworts on equal footing & w knowledge of wix world. He’s trying to recruit Susan bones & nevilles grandma to his centrist block.
Prophet spin that Harry in wizengamot is supporting old families & dark magic.
Hermione, Ron, Ginny & Luna all meet w Harry & he explains his agenda. Meeting goes well. He also explains how he’s broken up w Draco once he discovered Draco was betrothed. Ch 23-24 -
