Update: I had a chance to try out those savegames. The reason for both problems is that "Assassin" has its own local versions of several dialog files for characters who belong to the general game, specifically "blaze_dialog.c" (the one which controls what you say when you talk to yourself) and "Reynard Grueneveldt_dialog.c" (the one for the governor of Kralendijk).
The problem with Lucas is "blaze_dialog.c". The storyline-specific version seems to be based on an obsolete version which looked at quest attributes to determine if it needed to produce dialog for a sidequest. The current general version uses specific cases to choose which sidequest dialog to display. I can't merge the storyline-specific stuff into the general version because "Assassin" has its own version of the "Hitman" sidequest, called "A Worm in the Apple" in this storyline. Instead, I've modified the local version to use the same sidequest cases as the general version, apart from the "Hitman" section.
I'd already dealt with the problem with the governor of Kralendijk. Again, it's impossible to merge the "Assassin" specific version with the general version. This time it's because the general version has code related to the "Bartolomeu" storyline which uses the same case names as the code for the storyline in the "Assassin" version. So I renamed the "Assassin" version to "Reynard Grueneveldt_quest_dialog.c", and added a few lines to the quest code so that the governor switches to using this version when needed for the story, otherwise he uses the general file. This is why I thought
@salonikasurf had reached the point in the story where you go to Kralendijk to make peace, as that's when the governor has to use "Reynard Grueneveldt_quest_dialog.c". But the storyline-specific version of "Reynard Grueneveldt_dialog.c" is still in the game installer, so when you install the game, it's still in the "Assassin" dialog folder and therefore still blocks you from doing any side quest involving the governor.
@salonikasurf - and anyone else playing the "Assassin" storyline - delete the files "PROGRAM\Storyline\Assassin\dialogs\Reynard Grueneveldt_dialog.c" and "PROGRAM\Storyline\Assassin\dialogs\ENGLISH\Reynard Grueneveldt_dialog.h". Also, copy the attached file into "PROGRAM\Storyline\Asssassin\dialogs", overwriting the one already there.
@Pieter Boelen: remember how some storyline-specific dialog files need to be removed from the "Ardent" dialog folders? The same now applies to the "Assassin" version of "Reynard Grueneveldt_dialog.c" and "Reynard Grueneveldt_dialog.h".
