    The complexities of theft A Mirrorcatch Box may not be stolen in the ordinary way. The plan was as elaborate as a street-map of Spite. Until you get this parcel home, you won't even know if it contains a Box. (If your target had one, and if you succeeded in the theft, you'll find out below.)

    Winner

    You have defeated [StoryNexus username] ([Fallen London character name] in Fallen London) in a Mirrorsnatch attempt! If they had a Mirrorsnatch Box, it is now yours.

    Loser

    [Storynexus username] ([Fallen London character name] in Fallen London) has defeated you in a Mirrorsnatch attempt! If you had a Mirrorcatch Box, it is now theirs.
