When Eibon was 12 years old, his class went on an expedition to Albion, which is publicly known as Great Britain. The class was taken there in order to gather materials to create their wands for magical practice as they need it to perform it. They soon entered an magical forests and was guided by the fay to do.

He does so, ending up in Midgard, in the presence of the world tree that binds all of the realms, Yggdrasil. The fay described him as an successor of the fantastical wizard Merlin, and was told to craft the Elder Wand from the branches and roots of the World Tree. But at the same time, he also need to gather otherwise impossible resources to make it whole.

It was explained to Eibon to make the wands now, he was to gather the these materials; the sound of a cat's footfall, the beard of a woman, the roots of a mountain, the sinew of a bear, the breath of a fish and the spittle of a bird.
