For example, an explorer will not be able to travel into the Fire Swamp without first defeating a Minoshroom deep in its Labyrinth. In particular, it can be easily seen on a map where some biomes are surrounded by others, which may be under magical protection. As such, one can ascertain what area of the forest they are in, as well as nearby regions at a glance. Unlike an Overworld map, a Magic Map does not show the lay of the land, but instead, the various biomes of the Twilight Forest and their boundaries in various colours. While it can be duplicated, the view cannot be expanded, thus several maps will need to be crafted (by moving outside of the bounds of an existing map) for those who explore further afield. Helpfully, when first used it will show an area four times larger than an Overworld map.
Because of its link to the fabric of the Twilight Forest dimension, it cannot locate the user if they are in a different dimension.
A magic map works much in the same way as a map in the Overworld does but with key differences.
