When preparing the materials, the goal was not to discover something new in terms of botany or magic. The main thing was to select material from various sources and arrange it in a form convenient for assimilation, to create a Textbook that would help when conducting lessons on Herbalism in any magical or near-magical schools.
Taking into account the specifics of the subject, and I don’t write about things that I made up myself, of course, I use a huge amount sources listed on the site. The reference to specific sources in specific lectures has been replaced. It was not the goal to create some treatise, in which citations must be indicated with footnotes. This is a textbook for a magical school with a list of literature used. Considering that this is not a printed publication, the formalities are more than met. The description of plants uses material from the encyclopedia.
