    here is the simple solution. As long as the format stays the same and it only shifts the details, just plug and go from your version. This is the order of which they go in the door, and its only the needed info:

    "__person__ was at the far left"
    "someone else carried a valuable __item__ and when she saw it..."

    "__person__ raised her __drink__ in toast"
    "when one of the guests bragged about her __item__..."

    "They all wore difference colors and __person__ wore a jaunty __color__"
    "at which the lady from __place__ scoffed, saying it was no match for her __item__"

    "Then __person__ captivated them all with a story..."
    *last remaining item*

    "so __person__ showed off a prized __item__"

    Please let me know if this doesn't work for you, but I have tried it against multiple runs and it worked fine, so hopefully its all good.

    This pattern helped me unlock it in my Low Chaos playthrough. I later tried the same pattern in High Chaos and it worked as well. Below is the riddle:

    The women sat in a row. They all wore different colors and (Lady 1) wore a jaunty (Color 1) hat. (Lady 2) was at the far left, next to the guest wearing a (Color 2) jacket. The lady in (Color 3) sat left of someone in (Color 4). I remember that (Color 3) outfit because the woman spilled her (Drink 1) all over it. The traveler from (Home 1) was dressed entirely in (Color 5). When one dinner guest bragged about her (Heirloom 1), the woman next to her said they finer in (Home 1), where she lived.

    So (Lady 3) showed off a prized (Heirloom 2), at which the lady from (Home 2) scoffed, saying it was no match for her (Heirloom 3). Someone else carried a valuable (Heirloom 4) and when she saw it, the visitor from (Home 3) next to her almost spilled her neighbor's (Drink 2). (Lady 4) raised her (Drink 3) in a toast. The lady from (Home 4), full of (Drink 4), jumped up onto the table, falling onto the guest at the center seat, spilling the poor woman's (Drink 5). Then (Lady 5) captivated them all with a story about her wild youth in (Home 4).


    Now heres the pattern, L stands for lady, H for heirloom.
    *Heirloom 5 is not mentioned in the story, it will be whatever heirloom didnt appear in the first 4. The 5 possible Heirlooms are: Bird cage, Ring, Diamond, War Medal, Snuff Tin*

    L1 = H3
    L2 = H4
    L3 = H2
    L4 = H1
    L5 = H5

    Hope this helped.

    EDIT: According to numerous tries I did, the order of the ladies doesnt matter as long as the lady is matched with her heirloom so lady 1 can actually be in the third slot or the 5th, etc. HOWEVER if for some reason it still doesnt pop and you're certain you matched the correct lady with her heirloom user zeno2k has proposed: "the final order of the ladies is L2, L4, L1, L5, L3" so you can try that.

    Found this solution on the steam community and it worked for me

    To solve the puzzle, do the following

    Step 1: Read through the story and write down the names of the 5 individuals in the order they appear in the story
    Step 2: Read through the story again and write down the 5 heirlooms in the order that they appear
    Step 3: Highlight the section below to reveal the proper combination using the lists you just created:
    Name 2nd 4th 5th 3rd 1st
    Heirloom 4th 1st 5th 2nd 3rd

    Step 4: you’re welcome.

    TheRealJoeSchmoWow! Worked like a charm!!!

    MeszerusWorked for me!
    Tip for those who it seemingly doesnt work for: this is to do with the order in which the names and items appear in the body of the riddle proper, and not the order of which they appear in the opening introductory sentence.
