Steps:
1. Try to create retainer
2. Get stuck forever while the NPC is never summoned, nor getting an error message about there are too many retainers in the area
3. even in other cities when I try to create a retainer I get the black screen and it just hangs.
I can fix it by alt-f4ing out of the game, but /logout, other actions, etc., do not work. I get stuck in place until I force logout. Once I log back on, I can move and do everything else as normal again.
