An escort should not expire after its first fight

Current status

The patch fixes escorts expiring immediately after their first fight. A separate voice line announces ordinary escort expiry.

What to check in your save

After a fight, inspect escort status instead of assuming the escort has vanished. Keep normal expiry distinct from the fixed first-fight defect.

Version boundaries

The patch lists the issue as fixed. A similar symptom on a newer build needs a fresh reproduction instead of a claim that the old defect is still universally active.
