Tobin drew his wand across Harry's palm, cutting shallowly into the flesh to fill the small vial, sealing the cut once more when he had finished.
"This will take a few minutes, why don't you try the wood" he suggested pointing to the largest of the trunks. Harry nodded and made his way over immediately feeling something drawing him within the large container.
He placed his hand inside and removed small block of wood that was jet black in appearance and it shined slightly in the light of the room.
He could still feel something drawing him to the box and reached back in, these time removing a wood that was dark purple, though it was considerably lighter than the first.
He made his way back Tobin and placed the pieces on the table causing the man's eyebrow's to raise slightly.
"Both of them?" he asked to which Harry nodded.
"Ebony and Purple heart" he stated with a nod. "Then I imagine you will require two cores" he added with a light frown. "Let us see" he finished, turning his attention back to the vial of blood that was gently swirling above the table. Harry waited patiently for the man to be ready and watched as his blood changed colours and seemed to form into miniaturized liquid creatures within the glass.
After a few more minutes had passed it stopped and the vial descended down and rested on top of the table once more.
Tobin immediately picked it up and inspected it, giving a satisfied nod.
"Interesting, very interesting indeed" he mused. "The first core we need is the hair of a Thestral, something I have never used in a wand before" he explained. "It will be very interesting to see how it works" he added more to himself.
"Why have you never used it?" Harry asked curiously.
"Thestrals are rather complex creatures" Tobin began. "They live in herds, yet are still rather independent but very protective of their own kind and can be very dangerous, I imagine that you share those characteristics" he surmised confidently.
Harry just nodded his agreement, it did sound rather like him.
"The next core is even more interesting, and will be very costly indeed to obtain" Tobin answered thoughtfully.
"Even more interesting?" Croaker cut in. "Yes, the heartstring of a Ukrainian Ironbelly" Tobin responded seriously.
"But they are extinct" Croaker replied with a frown.
"There are some parts still on the market" Tobin said dismissively.
"What's a Ukrainian Ironbelly? A dragon?" Harry guessed.
"It is", Croaker answered. "Perhaps the most dangerous breed to ever exist as proven by the fact that it was purposely hunted into extinction at the end of the last century" he informed the teen.
"Also know as the silent inferno" Tobin cut in. "They were enormous when they could be seen but they hid well and a single one could reduce a village to ash in only seconds, they were completely ruthless if provoked but were rather placid until they hunted" he finished expertly, giving Harry a very calculating look.
Harry's eyebrows rose at the description and he waited for the man to continue.
"I know of a place I can get what I need but it will cost around 10,000 galleons" he informed them.
"I have the money" Harry replied instantly.
Tobin nodded.
"Ok, I will fetch what we need and will return shortly" he responded. Harry left the room and collected the required amount of gold for the man and handed the large bag to him.
"Your wand will be the most costly and perhaps one of the most difficult I have ever created Mr. Potter" Tobin explained with a smile. "I am rather looking forward to the challenge" he added before leaving the room.
"Well, as we have a little bit of time, why don't we get you checked over by our medical team" Croaker suggested. "We need you to be as healthy as possible" he concluded seriously.
Harry sighed but nodded his agreement.
It was around two hours later that a thoroughly fed up Harry Potter returned to the room after being poked, prodded and finally deemed medically fit to find Mr. Tobin adding the finishing touches to his wand. "Ahh, Mr. Potter" the man greeted him rather jovially. "I shall be with you in a moment" he explained.
Harry waited patiently for the man to be finished. When he was he gestured for the teen to join him, with a very anticipatory look on his face.
Harry approached the man and saw that there were two identical wands on the table in front of him, both shiny black in colour with purple streaks spread vertically throughout the shaft.
"It's illegal to own two wands" Harry pointed out, having read the laws of wand carrying in the book Dobby had gotten for him.
"Are you planning on telling the Auror's?" Tobin asked with a raised eyebrow. "You should always have a spare, just in case" he said firmly.
Harry just shrugged and picked up one of the wands immediately feeling its compatibility to himself as a powerful wave of warmth spread throughout him.
"I had to fuse the two woods together using amethyst, I chose it as it would be less noticeable than any other stone I could have used, as you can see it blends perfectly with the purple heart" he explained proudly.
Harry had to admit that it was rather beautiful and even the purple appealed to him in a strange way.
"Well, give it a try" Tobin instructed impatiently.
Harry took a deep breath and thought about the prospect of seeing his parents alive and basked in the feeling of anticipation that enveloped him.
"Expecto Patronum" he whispered.
