In Progress [1.5.1 Beta] Crash when introducing self to Lord or Notables [.sav]

[Ananda_The_Destroyer]

Just today having a crash every time I talk to a notable or lord after introducing myself and pressing continue. Crashes on the map dialogue, In the town center, in the Keep, via the "request a meeting" at a castle and the talk bar in a town. Not sure if this will occur with lords I have already met. Does not occur talking to looters or caravans on map.

Already validated steam files.

Unusual circumstances, I have lost 2 husbands in combat in already (experimenting with death enabled), something that has never happened before. Gotta get that 3rd husband but crashes whenever I talk to anyone!

Edit: In fact loading a save from before Bortu has his hunting accident and preceding a few days till time of reported .sav does not have the crash problems. Doesn't mean it caused this though. I might try to get him accidentally on purpose killed in this save and see if it causes problems again.

Summary: crash every time I talk to a notable or lord after introducing myself and pressing continue. Crashes on the map dialogue, In the town center, in the Keep, via the "request a meeting" at a castle and the talk bar in a town
How to Reproduce: Load .sav below, go to any town or castle and talk to lord or notable, introduce self and press continue. I haven't tried literally everyone of course but at least 10 or so.

I got bortu killed in a different save of this game and id not in counter this crash with the same NPCs/area, so probably not related.

This problem continues to come up eventually in apparent working saves I revert to. I keep multiple manual saves in case it happens but it's not a very good workaround as it can be hard to know this problem has started as I don't constantly talk to NPCs.
