I restarted konquest and ran into Motaro again. Monday 10:00 am 1.23.01 B-5 to the left of the leftmost hut (facing), next to the woods. He appears, says, rather gruffly, "Here, take this", and hands over 1000 ruby coins. Sorry, I don't have a video capture card, and am too lazy to get out my digital camera. Hope this helps. Regards, D
