It would seem his dialogue is the same before even entering Radagos's hideout.

When navigating the inventory screen, you're able to see more details about an item the player has equipped by hovering over it. You can then move your mouse over that panel to see more info. If you move your mouse from that panel, and back to the equipped item, the UI will flicker. The two screenshots below help visualize this. This happens for all equipped items in the inventory. The + represents the player's cursor, and the arrow is the direction you move your mouse.

There isn't an intuitive way to reset the player's controls to default settings. A temporary fix is to delete BannerlordGameKeys.xml from C:\Users\YOURPCNAME\Documents\Mount and Blade II Bannerlord\Configs and verify integrity of cache for Bannerlord. (Temp fix assumes you're using Steam)
