Sections of this video are direct quotations from the essay, Arcane Revenge by Sam Gurry. Gurry has reached out to me to help me rectify my mistake and helped highlight the sections in which I haven't appropriately attributed them. I had attributed them broadly in the description, but not the specific time. Thankfully, Sam has educated me and accepted my sincerest apologies and even been graceful enough to offer encouragement, education and many kind words. I did get a little muddled as I was trying to structure everything. I know I've been uploading to YouTube for about a year, but I'm frankly still quite ignorant to making these videos and didn't mean to do so out of malice. Again, sincerest apologies.
