Research direction

Reproduce the conversation in Lighthouse with German selected, following the four steps in the report, and inspect Lighthouse.log around the third Brentilda interaction. Compare the German clue sequence with English (UK) and French; done means the third conversation reveals the clue without crashing on the reported Windows setup and PlayStation Vita port.
