The parchment will soak up any Ink poured onto it and after a whole bottle and a bit of waiting, it will show a circle and a dot, symbolising the user. Around them are appear crosses, marking the spots where weapons can be found. Pivoting the map shifts the crosses to show the new spots in relation of height. If there are no targets in near the user, the map shows an arrow in the direction of the nearest weapon with a distance measured in karys.
The item can be used a few times before dripping with ink, which will evaporate one bottle a day.
Karys is an ancient Central Asian unit of length and measures the distance between your extended pinky and thumb or about 16-20 cm.
