quest message tweaks

From a list of bugs sent by <email deleted>, the initial message for
the knight quest included the phrase "looking closer" which isn't suitable
if the hero is blind at the time.  Also, one samurai guardian message used
"ninja" (assassin, more or less) where it ought to have been using "ronin"
(samurai without any master, a disgrace).

     The archeologist and tourist quests' initial messages had similar
blindness problems with "look".  (There are still at least 3 other places
which use "appear"; I've left those alone.)
