I am amused that such a simple NPC can cause such wonderment...

It was designed such that when defeated, it flees back to the world map. When development was changed to the bosses dying and dropping hearts, etc instead of escaping, they were set to respawn immediately on death at a random waypoint on main.gmap. So whether you speak to the guide or not, the bosses are there - they're just quick and relatively stealthy for as big as they are. We used to hunt them on the debug server during development - no small task, as they were not yet following the route correctly, so we'd have to track a fast-moving evil bomy lord hiding Somewhere...
