What the Japanese, French and German versions say 5
Japanese
EN 'Take the road leading west from the Moraby Drydocks and speak with Haldbroda regarding the whereabouts of one Fyrilsmyd, making sure to express your /doubt concerning his honesty.'
JA 『キャンドルキープ埠頭の水夫「ハルドブロダ」にエモート「問い詰める」をして、連絡船の運行状況を聞きだそう。』, 'Use the “Interrogate” emote on Haldbroda, the sailor at Candlekeep Quay, and get him to tell you how the ferry service is running.'
No one calls Haldbroda a liar. The jumpy Haldbroda at once reports the ferry's accident at sea.
French
EN 'As I cannot leave my post, I would ask you to travel to Candlekeep Quay in my stead and inform Haldbroda that if he insists on playing these games, I will personally see that he is transferred to Turtleback Island, where he can rot alone in the middle of the sea for eternity.'
FR «Dis, tu ne voudrais pas aller là-bas et demander ce qu'il en est à Haldbroda ? Ce marin n'est pas très loquace, mais si tu le questionnes, il sera forcé de te dire ce qu'il sait.», 'Say, would you go there and ask Haldbroda what is going on? This sailor is not very talkative, but if you question him, he will have to tell you what he knows.'
Here the emote is /questionner, not /doubt. Ahtbyrm is merely worried and suspects no liar.
EN 'Hells, we here at the Quay have had enough trouble these past few suns, what with the sinking of that Lominsan cargo ship off the Salt Strand.'
FR «C'est étrange quand même, parce qu'il y avait un marin vétéran aux commandes...», 'It's strange, though, because a veteran sailor was at the helm...'
Haldbroda finds the wreck strange, which hints at foul play. The English sees nothing strange.
German
EN 'Journey to Candlekeep Quay and relay Ahtbyrm's /doubt to Haldbroda.' · 'As I cannot leave my post, I would ask you to travel to Candlekeep Quay in my stead and inform Haldbroda that if he insists on playing these games, I will personally see that he is transferred to Turtleback Island, where he can rot alone in the middle of the sea for eternity.'
DE „Haldbroda /schuld zuweisen“, 'Lay /blame on Haldbroda' · „Falls er sich weiter dumm stellt, dann beschuldige ihn in aller Öffentlichkeit!“, 'If he keeps playing dumb, accuse him in public!'
Your emote is /schuld, 'blame', instead of /doubt.
EN 'Hells, we here at the Quay have had enough trouble these past few suns, what with the sinking of that Lominsan cargo ship off the Salt Strand.'
DE „Zuerst müssen wir klären, wie das Schiff überhaupt kentern konnte, obwohl so viele erfahrene Matrosen an Bord waren.“, 'First we have to find out how the ship could capsize at all, with so many old hands aboard.'
Haldbroda wonders how the ship capsized. As in French, the crew's experience makes it suspicious.

Ahtbyrm
Where in the seven hells is that man!? Not once in twelve moons has he been late with a shipment, and now two whole turns of the sun without a single word.
A shipwright of mine─a young man named Fyrilsmyd─recently left Candlekeep Quay to retrieve several crates of supplies ordered from Limsa Lominsa...but has yet to return.
I have sent several missives to Haldbroda, but his replies are always the same. He does not recall ever seeing the wright, nor the supplies he was scheduled to collect. That man knows something, and I severely doubt he is telling me the whole truth.

- FR Pourtant, le bac qu'il a pris pour rentrer doit déjà être arrivé au quai de la Torche... ‘And yet the ferry he took to come back must already have arrived at the Torch quay...’ French Ahtbyrm is simply worried, since the ferry should have arrived; English Ahtbyrm suspects Haldbroda of lying.
As I cannot leave my post, I would ask you to travel to Candlekeep Quay in my stead and inform Haldbroda that if he insists on playing these games, I will personally see that he is transferred to Turtleback Island, where he can rot alone in the middle of the sea for eternity.
- FR Dis, tu ne voudrais pas aller là-bas et demander ce qu'il en est à Haldbroda ?

- JA 悪いが、キャンドルキープ埠頭まで行って、連絡船を管理してるハルドブロダに、運航状況を「問い詰め」てみてくれ。 ‘Sorry, but go to Candlekeep Quay and, with Haldbroda who manages the ferry, try "pressing" him about how the service is running.’ English threatens to have Haldbroda sent to rot on Turtleback Island; Japanese just asks you to press him about the ferry.
Journey to Candlekeep Quay and relay Ahtbyrm's /doubt to Haldbroda.
Haldbroda
Eh? Does that self-righteous dog Ahtbyrm doubt that I've never told him anything less than the truth!?
- FR Tu veux me questionner ou quoi ? ‘You want to question me or what?’ English Haldbroda angrily insults Ahtbyrm for doubting him; French Haldbroda asks whether you want to question him.
- JA 「問い詰め」られたら、どうしよう……。 ‘What'll I do if I get "pressed"...’ English Haldbroda angrily insults Ahtbyrm for doubting him; Japanese Haldbroda nervously worries about being pressed.
- FR Qu'est-ce que t'as à me regarder comme ça... ‘What are you looking at me like that for...!?’ French Haldbroda snaps at you for staring; he neither mentions nor insults Ahtbyrm.
Turtleback Island!? He cannot do that...can he?
- DE Jetzt reicht es mir aber! ‘Now I've had enough!’ English Haldbroda is frightened by the Turtleback Island threat; German Haldbroda angrily says he has had enough.
- JA 実は、連絡船の海難事故が発生したんです！ ‘Actually, the ferry has had an accident at sea!’ English Haldbroda panics about being sent to Turtleback Island; Japanese reveals the ferry had an accident at sea.
I swear on my poor nana's grave, Navigator rest her soul, I know naught of this Fyrilsmyd, nor his precious supplies.
- FR Le chef du chantier naval de Moraby s'inquiète de ne pas voir revenir un de ses ouvriers, tu dis ? ‘What!? The head of the Moraby shipyard is worried because one of his workers hasn't come back, you say?’ English swears on his nana's grave he knows nothing of Fyrilsmyd; French is surprised to hear a worker hasn't returned.

Hells, we here at the Quay have had enough trouble these past few suns, what with the sinking of that Lominsan cargo ship off the Salt Strand. I haven't the time to take a proper piss, let alone make note of every scrag that wanders in off the Grip.
- FR S'il était à bord du bac, il est peut-être tombé au moment de l'accident. ‘If he was aboard the ferry, maybe he fell when the accident happened.’ English says he is too busy to notice every stranger; French suggests the man may have fallen during the ferry accident.
- DE Es könnte sein, dass er auf dem gekenterten Schiff war, aber das lässt sich nur schwer nachprüfen. ‘It could be that he was on the capsized ship, but that is hard to check.’ English says he is too busy to notice every stranger; German suggests the man may have been on the capsized ship.
- JA もしかして、事故で海に放り出されたんじゃ……！？ ‘Could he have been thrown into the sea in the accident...!?’ English says he is too busy to notice every stranger; Japanese fears the man was thrown into the sea in the accident.
