magical realm
Where spells work
A magical realm is a fictional world or domain where magic operates—enchanted kingdoms, fairy dimensions, or fantasy settings governed by supernatural rather than natural laws.
The phrase often appears in fantasy literature and gaming: The portal opened into a magical realm.
In internet slang, "magical realm" refers to someone inserting their personal fetishes into a tabletop roleplaying game, making other players uncomfortable: The GM took us into his magical realm when every NPC started talking about feet.
