I want to add that after the patch that happened on Saturday (afternoon/evening), this worked just fine and I completed all steps without incident. I guess the queen just wasn’t ready for a visit before the patch.

I just hit this bug this morning. Had to Alt-F4 out of the endless loading loop for it to start. Tried this more than once. No error messages occur. The game just hangs until you alt-F4 or use task manager to force the game to close.
Note: I let it run while looking for a post on this bug and writing the above. When I finally returned to the game several minutes later I found an error code 7 message for the connection being lost.
