I don't know if this made the difference or not, but after trying to find him
about 100+ times, he hit me immediately on enter the woods from the west
right after I entered the JU-JU house and getting the 4th piece of map.
I'm wondering if one of those quests tricked the Imp. Dee, you had it
early on, do you remember if you had been to Ju-Ju house first??
