265	If you have a golem in control your spell type will be listed as golem,
266	with the creature name in parantheses.
267
268	To control your golem, just press the fire key in the direction you want
269	your golem to move. Your golem will then start moving in that direction,
270	and keep moving in that direction until you change its direction.
