"With 21" in the other clue seems redundant though unless 21 is a word meaning "make an anagram of", it's just an anagram of EGBOILS

What country are you in, EJS? I know 1a, but it’s an unusual crossword

I do, but I smell a rat. If it’s your first cryptic crossword it’s an extremely difficult one. Are there any rules? Would the person who gave it to you be happy you were asking for help online? Will you tell them you did so?

Someone in my college makes it for the college magazine
