quest tuning

     Alter the starting position of the monk and priest quest
nemeses to neutralize the possibility of attacking them by
zapping directly to the left as soon as you arrive on the final
level.  And give the samurai a little variety too by varying
the arrival location, although that is just cosmetic.
