>Hemmed in by one invisible wererat?
><Someone>: Should I feel hemmed in if I can see that a wererat summons
>zero rats? Can the invisible wererat hem me in all by itself? And
>even if it had summoned anything, wouldn't a different message had
>been clearer (for isntance, "Rats appear around you!"); after all,
>I could see *what* was hemming me in.
>I agree that the current messages (and even the ones aspired to by the
>comment) are non-ideal.

<Someone>'s suggested set-up:
Seen summoner, seen help    : "The wererat summons help!"
Seen summoner, unseen help: "The wererat summons help! You feel hemmed in."
Seen summoner, no help: "The wererat summons help! But none comes."
Unseen summoner, seen help: "(A rat appears|Rats appear) from
nowhere!"
Unseen summoner, unseen help: "You feel hemmed in."
Unseen summoner, no help: No message.
