		say "It's too dark to see anything in the mirror.";
	Otherwise:
		say "You look in the mirror and gasp in surprise. You run a hand across your cheek, which is now covered in grey fur. Your hand has changed into something more of a paw. Still having the general shape of a hand, but having pads on the fingers and palm. Your hands are also covered in this fur and have short, dull claws on the ends of the fingers. 'W-What happened...?' you say to yourself. Relieved that you can still talk.

You look over the rest of your mostly-naked body. Your feet have changed almost in the same way as your hands: fur-covered and having pads and claws. Your face and head has changed into what looks more like a wolf's.

Then, all of a sudden you faint from the sheer shock of what you've witnessed.";
