Twilight Sky X questline lockout?

Hello, I'm yla01, and I am an idiot (somewhat).

After reaching Twilight Sky X, I was unsure whether the central primal world questline would continue. After all, there is no Whatever Sky I yet. Back when Twilight Sky came out, it came together with the Shifting Sky X questline portion. I only vaguely recall the previous Skies, but I expected it to work similar for the transition from Twilight to Whatever Sky.
On the other hand, the story was clearly building up to a great battle and you don't design games with a dramatic arc and no payoff.

In any case, I had decided to not do that last stretch. Until the release of Whatever Sky, maxing out Twilight Sky X would not give me any advantages and on the other hand, that quest's vitae reward would give me a headstart when it eventually does.

All planning aside, when I reached Twilight Sky X, the NPC offered me a teleport quest. It was clearly marked as 'enter with squad only', but also obviously would only teleport me somewhere. So I accepted it, just intending to get familiar with wherever it would take me and then leave again. The first part worked flawlessly. I could see where the questline would continue. There was no natural exit - it was obvious that successfully finishing the quest inside that area would teleport me out. But I didn't want to do that, so I used a Teleport Incense.

Now I can't get back in. The teleport worked only once.

Am I permanently locked out from continuing the Twilight Sky X questline now? The designers clearly put thought into making the quest non-unrecoverable, but missed a spot.

Did this happen to anyone else? By my guess, not a lot of people will end up in my situation. One can argue it's my own fault, but I also don't think the game designers wanted anyone to end up in this position.

The best and easiest fix would be to make the teleport quest repeatable, so if anyone is reading this forum with contact to the developers, can you put this on the wish list?
EDIT: On second thought, my suggestion is ****. PWI would end up with more chars stuck inside in a single day than ever were stuck outside. There'd have to be a way to get out again later, too.

[I have not put in a support ticket. I'd classify this as a gameplay bug and the support site suggests posting it in the forum. I'm not sure whether General Discussion, Technical Support, or Quality Corner is the right spot. I've decided on Technical Support because I can see sylenthunder being active here. If somewhere else is better, feel free to move this or tell me to repost in the correct spot.]

Thanks to anyone able to give me an answer on this.
