typo in the second jkk mission where you have to meet ola in the sewers. previous dialogue option was about asking him to leave behind a trail of bread crumbs. "The" should be "They"

Anticolagulant newest ability has error in the description and it says '2 turns turns' instead of '2 turns' and is missing info that it applies 10 stacks of anticolagulant to a weapon.

Yahota dialogue about Briggs - I think the gap between text is a bit too large here

Harmost dialogue - should be 'now i know' rather than 'know i know'

Many spelling/grammar issues in Phreak's questline. It definitely stands out compared to the rest of Underrail's excellent dialogue.

Some highlights from the first conversation:
- "He calms his beard"
- "The sorrow on his face faints"
- "the same thought buzzes my mind"
- "prefered"                         -> preferred
- "beggining"                       -> beginning
- "a literal sewage"               -> literal sewage
- "an vigorous old man"        -> a vigorous old man
- "much more resembles"     -> more closely resembles
- "out of place furniture"       -> out-of-place furniture
- "you've picked him up"       -> you heard him
- "he once again mentioned" -> he mentioned
- "... maybe, you could be an exception to that rule." His rule is not always mentioned
- Unnecessary prepositions like "Firstly"
- Many, many commas lol
- Run-on sentences
- Hanging spaces and double-spaces between some words
- Tone varies wildly throughout the conversation

Longer examples with fixes:
"... What stands apart from the usual decrepit mugger look, is his clenched right fist, or rather, the glove he's wearing. ..." ->

The old man steps towards you. His decrepit silhouette glows in the pulsing blue light of his clenched right fist. Wires coil from the joints of his fingers up his arm, disappearing into the sleeve of his ragged overcoat.

"This predicament is completely avoidable. It's in neither's interest to escalate this non-existing conflict any further. On the other hand, I'm much more interested in having a conversation. After all, we should act like humans, not insects." ->

This predicament is completely avoidable; I'm much more interested in having a conversation. We're people, not insects.

If possible, it might be worth just running a Microsoft Word spelling/grammar-check on his whole dialogue tree rather than hunting for individual changes.
