Dolly knew of its existence, but had nowhere to catch it.
If Dolly had enough intelligence now...
Wait, the Marauder's Map seems to still be in Filch's office?
With that in mind, Dolly had an idea.
With her goal in mind, Dolly let Hagrid go, gave Harry and the others a few more words of advice, and then chose to leave.
Of course, Dolly was still worried.
He called out to Dian Dian and instructed him to secretly observe the situation there at night. He only left after confirming that his troublesome younger brother was not in danger.
What followed was a painful period for the two of them, Hermione and I.
Do not misunderstand.
For Dolly, as long as she could be with Hermione, she could feel Hermione's body temperature and faint fragrance from time to time.
Touching Hermione's soft and supple hands and face, Dolly could persevere even in the face of the most difficult things.
...besides memorizing the entire history of magic.
Dolly really didn't understand the point of this.
Memorizing the date is one thing, but why do you have to remember every single word and detail so clearly?
But there was nothing Hermione could do; she found it helpful, but Dolly still couldn't demonstrate her test-taking skills.
After all, Hogwarts doesn't have quizzes or monthly exams, so Dolly can only wait until the first-year exams are over and let her grades speak for themselves.
Night fell quickly, and after Dolly comforted Hermione, she finally got the chance to act alone.
Dolly's target was naturally the Hogwarts warden's office.
This place is located on the first floor of Hogwarts Castle, right next to the entrance hall.
The room was very small, dark, dirty, and windowless. An oil lamp hung from the ceiling, and a faint smell of fried fish filled the air.
The walls were lined with many wooden filing cabinets, which contained detailed information on every student who had been punished at Hogwarts.
One of the filing cabinet drawers was labeled "Confiscated Items, High Danger," and the Marauder's Map was inside.
Fred and George haven't gotten the map yet, so it would be almost a piece of cake for Dolly to get it.
Filch doesn't have magic, and its cats at most have some cat-like blood; they are far less intelligent than Crookshanks.
Dolly wouldn't even need to make any special preparations to steal from such a group.
Once Filch began his new patrol, Dolly quietly entered the room, searching for what she wanted.
After retrieving the Marauder's Map from the cabinet, Dolly immediately had Spot help her escape without even opening the door a second time.
As for why Dolly could know about this, it's because Dolly wasn't worried that Dolly would tell Dumbledore.
Dolly will give Harry the map later, but that will have to wait until she has eliminated all the suspicious individuals inside Hogwarts.
When they arrived at a secluded spot, Dolly opened the parchment map, but at this point it was just a blank sheet of parchment.
Dolly then pointed her wand at the map and said, "I solemnly swear that I will not do anything good."
The next second, the ink lines began to extend, revealing a map of Hogwarts.
It can show users not only every classroom, corridor and corner in the castle, but also every inch of the school grounds, as well as the hidden secret passages, and the location of everyone is also displayed on it with dots.
This map can also correctly identify every person, regardless of whether they are an Animagus, have taken Compound Herbal Decoction, or are wearing an invisibility cloak.
Even the ghosts and mischievous sprites of Hogwarts will appear on the map.
Chapter 125, Part 2: Quirrell's Secret Revealed
One of the flaws of this map is that it cannot distinguish between people with the same name.
Furthermore, Marauder's Map does not mark all locations on the school, such as the Room of Requirement and the Secret Room.
This could be because the mapmaker was unaware of these locations, or it could be that they were simply not meant to be marked.
Despite these drawbacks, the Marauder's Map is still ridiculously powerful, making it a formidable tool for wizards who have seen it, including Dolly now.
One has to admire how much effort and magic went into creating this map.
This includes, but is not limited to, meticulous exploration of the terrain and structure of Hogwarts; professional hand-drawing skills; architectural design talent; and magical abilities far exceeding those of a junior wizard.
First, this map is constantly changing and will change as the stairs in the castle deform.
This requires the person who created this map to have powerful transformation abilities.
Secondly, it can identify everyone's name and track everyone's whereabouts.
The latter is easier to deal with; there is a spell called the Human Footprint Spell, which can trace human footprints.
But how exactly is it possible to distinguish each person's name and still mark it?
If it only marked students, that would be fine, but it can even mark Peter Pettigrew and detect the Deathly Hallows invisibility cloak. What kind of tracking magic is this?
In comparison, the other features of this map no longer seem so overpowered.
This includes, but is not limited to, hiding one's own secrets and using improvisational tactics to attack those who try to force their way in; Snape fell for this in the original story.
Finally, this map is a permanent magical item, a feature typically found only in legendary items.
Honestly, Dolly thought so.
If this map really was created by the four-man Raiders, Dolly thinks they should have no problem taking down Voldemort together.
Now, holding this map in her hands, Dolly seems to finally know the answer to the question.
[Hogwarts architectural diagram, possessing self-enhancing magic: Transfiguration Charm lv6, Solidification Charm lv6, True Name Charm lv6.]
[Marauder's Map, possesses the following self-enhancing spells: Concealment Charm Lv.4, Human Trail Charm Lv.4, Adhesion Charm Lv.3.]
It turns out that the Marauder's Map in her hand was actually two items.
A legendary item of unknown origin, likely a map created by the founders of Hogwarts when they built the school.
Level 6 magic and the True Name Charm, which Dolly had never heard of before, are the best examples.
Marauder's Map is an extension of this magical item, borrowing its power to enhance the effect of the Human Trail Spell.
This is why the map eventually became one of the most useful tools in the hands of the red-haired twins and Harry.
This explains the strangeness of the item.
Level 4 magic is within the range that most 14- or 15-year-old wizards can achieve, which is enough to show that the raiders have great talent.
It's important to understand that the Human Trace Charm and the Concealment Charm are not commonly used spells, and it's impossible for raiders to practice such spells for years.
In other words, after a short period of practice, they mastered these two spells to level 4. Isn't that enough to demonstrate their talent?
Of course, no matter how strong they are, they are still just geniuses among mortals.
Not only is he inferior to the two Dark Lords, the White One and the Black One, but he is also inferior to Snape. Snape was tricked by the Marauder's Map, and this was Snape who is now the Headmaster of Slytherin.
After getting the Marauder's Map, Dolly's mind started racing.
The reason she felt passive and pressured before was ultimately because she had to guard against sneak attacks hidden in the shadows.
Now that she has this map, she can frequently patrol the entire Hogwarts to ensure that no one poses a threat to her.
Of course, Voldemort can no longer be marked on the Marauder's Map now, since Voldemort is theoretically dead.
But it wouldn't hurt for Dolly to check where Quirrell is, would it?
With that in mind, Dolly decided not to waste any more time and went directly to the vicinity of Quirrell's office.
Marauder's Map is actually a very large map, and displaying everyone's names on it is a very difficult task.
Especially in a dormitory environment, all Dolly could see was a huge pile of names, which made her dizzy.
Of course, Dolly knew that she could alleviate the situation using Transfiguration.
The fact that so many names above can move is itself a result of transfiguration.
Dolly certainly couldn't reverse the Transfiguration above, but she could make unwanted names disappear temporarily.
But Dolly doesn't need to worry about that now, because only one name has appeared before her.
However, this person's name is not Quirrell.
Kashy Bolton.
Who the hell are you?
Dolly could assure her that she had never heard of the name before and that it was absolutely not the kind of adult one would expect to be at Hogwarts.
What's more, this person is in Quirrell's office.
With that in mind, Dolly decided to rush in and find out what was going on.
However, Dolly eventually let go of her hand, not because she was worried that the people inside would bring her danger.
Dolly had already grabbed her little silver shield under her robe, ready to fight at any moment.
Dolly was thinking that perhaps she should step back to the sidelines to avoid alerting the enemy.
Dolly had to admit that the last time she exposed Quirrell, that is, by taking off Quirrell's headscarf, it was undoubtedly a successful attempt to alert him.
Voldemort had to temporarily leave Quirrell's body and hide in the body of a rat in a ditch, waiting for Quirrell to feel safe before taking him back.
Although the thought of Voldemort's tragic fate made Dolly feel better.
However, compared to resolving Voldemort's crisis in one fell swoop, Dolly felt that such actions that only vented emotions but did not achieve good results should be less common.
For example, Dolly could certainly expose the problem in Quirrell's office now, letting Dumbledore know that Quirrell had brought strangers to Hogwarts.
This is a major taboo at Hogwarts, meaning that dangerous individuals with unknown identities can now infiltrate Hogwarts.
But this will likely only alert the enemy and yield almost no results.
Quirrell wasn't fired for ambushing Dolly, so he'll most likely not be fired for what he's doing now either.
Only by resolving Voldemort's crisis can Dolly truly feel at ease.
Thinking of this, Dolly quietly left and instead went to find Snape.
