261	Golems are creatures that the player has some control over. Note that many
262	summoned creatures are considered golems, even if they are not called
263	golems.
264
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.
271
272	Note that once you leave the map that the golem is on, the golem will
273	disappear. Also, once you select another spell to cast, or change your
