note: I recently used the option - 'Send Inquisitor Vakir to 'negotiate', and did not experience any kind of glitch as mentioned in the other guide. The result was:
Construction Suspension Cancelled ( and nothing else)
However, about 7 days later, it triggered the 'Deep Damage - Delayed Too Long' event.

"...failure to address structural malfunction..."
This even occurs about a week after "Deep Damage - Mechanicus Depot" if you choose the Inquisitor option.
Result:
Mediation Chamber Damaged
Exterminatus Damaged

Follow-up mission to Deep Wounds - Recovery Suspended.

• We will wait until they arrive
  Result: Triggers 'Deep Wounds - Recovery Underway' event. Ship immobilized for 10 days, unable to cancel. After the 10 days, the knight is Wounded (and so must still recover) and gains Autosanguine Augmetics (+1 Armour, +2 HP).
  
• Grant him the Emperor's Peace
  Result: One of your wounded knights dies.
  
• See if they can be bribed
  Result: Research suspended (10 days)
  Libris-Malleus Damaged (Upgrades offline)
  50% of seeds destroyed
  OR
  
• See if they can be bribed - alternate
  Result: -1 Requisition
  Triggers 'Deep Wounds - Recovery Underway' event. Ship immobilized for 10 days, unable to cancel. After the 10 days, the knight is Wounded (and so must still recover) and gains Autosanguine Augmetics (+1 Armour, +2 HP).
  note: I experienced this April 2025. not sure if the result of this choice is random, or was previously bugged and was patched. This result makes more sense than Libris-Malleus Damaged IMO, but is also redundant with waiting.

It is related to an Knight being critically injured.

• Set coordinates to the facility.
  Result: Recovery Suspended on the wounded knight;
  Random planet gains new mission: Deep Wounds - Hospitaller Facility. There is a timer on this mission.

  Result: One of your wounded knights dies.
  
• Conduct risky medical procedures.
  Result: Knight Lost and Ectar - Indignant (30-45 days) -50% XP rate
  note: it is unclear what factors may influence the results. Based on one report.
  note: Like 'The Emperor's Peace - Battle Scars', results may improve the more upgrades you have for your Apothecarion, to include full recovery.

  Eblingus: my two knights selected for the assignment were not the highest ranks, but of all the knights that were not wounded, they were the highest rank. Not sure if the non-wounded status is what makes the difference, or if it was just RNG.
