0009571: Game crashes on specifying image related to historical figure
I downloaded the newest dwarf fortress version and migrated my save from 40.24. I wanted to build statues of fort's leader. I went into 'details' menu, where I chose 'historical figure' option. And the game crashed.
Turned out it crashes anytime I want to put an image dedicated to historical figure.

You can download the save from here:

1. Designate an area for engraving / add 'construct rock statue' to mason's workshop (haven't tried metalsmith etc.)
2. Go into details menu.
3. Choose 'Specify an image'.
4. Choose 'Related to historical figure'.
5. Press enter key.
6. Crash.
I found a few things in error log - about TRAVEL_ADVISORY and ADVENTURE_TIER tags not being recognised by the game. The error persists after I erased them from their locations.
