inheritance (a rewrite)

un

harry james potter would like to think that his life was as normal as it could be living as a wizard in a muggle home. he was currently in bed, locked in his room doing some of his homework (and catch up work for arithmacy and runes, which he decided he was going to take in place of divination) for the next school year. he was in the middle of some translations when and owl arrived, carrying a letter for him.

mr. h.j. potter:
to the most honorable heir potter, we at gringotts would like to send our most sincere apologies for mistakes that your account manager has made towards your accounts. he has allowed several transactions to be made without confirmation from you which has cost you nearly 3 billion galleons. we have taken the necessary steps to fix these mistakes and we assure that none like them will ever happen again. on a second note, your godfather, the lord sirius black iii, has asked for your presence at the bank for a  formal claiming. this would lead to your emancipation in all the muggle, wizarding, and magical world. this event would be taking place on the 24th of june, 8 am in our allée de platine gringotts branch. this letter will act as a portkey 10 minutes before the given time so we asked that you are prepared.
gringotts bank for magicals

harry was trying to process the information he had just read when a sharp knock at his door sounded.

"boy! lunch time!"

he heard his aunt call, the flap of his door opening for some food to be pushed in. he quickly ate the food and then returned to his thinking. after a while he returned to doing his homework and before he knew it, it was the morning of june 24.

he dressed in his formal attire and plain black robes and on exactly 7:50, the portkey activated.

"heir potter, so nice to see that you have made it!" griphook, the manager of the diagon alley branch, said. harry nodded and then was led to a meeting room.

"heir hadrian james potter, yes? we have been expecting you," ragnok, european head goblin said, motioning for the boy to sit down. "now, before the claiming can happen we would first need to test you for any other inheritances. do we have your consent?" the old goblin continued as soon as harry was sitting.

"yes, of course master ragnok, but what exactly would this test entail?" the boy answered, his reading on etiquette really helping his situation.

"7 drops of blood and 3 strand of hair sir, all of which will be disposed of properly."

"then let's start now then, master ragnok."

the goblin offered harry a dagger, which he gladly took to slice his palm a tiny bit. he put seven drops of his blood in the container provided before yanking out three strands of his hair. he returned all materials to the goblin when he was finished, and waited patiently for the results.

harry's mind wandered off into daydreams as he waited for the piece/s of paper that would change his life. it took roughly 5 minutes which was longer than expected.
