[Dialogue] Issue with genitive - ('s) turned into (of a)

Hi devs & fantastic ESO community, this is my first post.

I've come across about two dozen of the following syntax errors in quest dialogues.
The audio is always fine, it's the on-screen text that is flawed.
  • Genitive case (My, Her, His, Their, Drublog's) has been replaced by a generic "of a" / "of an" like in the screenshot below.
  • This may have been caused by a mass-editing script aimed at correcting dialogue, but executed poorly?

The voiceover is correct in saying "My memories, my being, rushed back with the Animus Geode's destruction."

It's not a huge deal, but kind of immersion-breaking :)

Anyway, cheers to ZOS and the generous ESO community, whose tips on this forum have helped me tremendously delve deeper into the game mechanics :)
