Maria-sama ga Miteru Volume 22 prologue

In middle school, during social studies class, each student would receive their own blank map.

When I was given my new blank map, I tasted a happiness I could not even express.

It was a Japan with only its outline drawn.

We had only to draw in fine lines demarking the prefectures, and showing the rivers.

From here I added mountains to my blank map.

I created cities.

I added in all the prefectural offices to the prefectures, and even added climate details.

But nothing had yet been added on top of my map.

From here I created a world above my blank map, almost as if I was doing what god would do.

With this, I would create such a beautiful world that no-one in the class could exceed.

I can do this.

And when the page was filled, I added things to the map that had not been printed in the first page.

My new blank map was shining brilliantly, and I began adding things I believed would appear in the future.
