The misty forest quest bug

[whole ember]

Spoilers coming up since it is quest related.

I just started the quest and got to the point where I speak with the wood elf for the forest poison potion (after being teleported by the golden stag). I stopped playing mid-conversation and now when I log in I am by the Blue Oak tree (before being teleported away) and have no path available to leave. The northern path is blocked by tree limbs, see photo. Let me know if you have any ideas, thanks!

Dear @whole ember, thank you for your love for our game.
Could you please confirm to us if you tried teleporting to a portal in the map.

Sorry, still new to the game. How do I do this? That feature wasn't introduced yet so I'm not sure if it's available

Thank you for your cooperation. I'll forward your case to our dev team and they will do their best to work on your case. I'll get back to you as soon as the result comes back.

Thanks! I've been stuck in this area for almost two days so I appreciate it

Not a dev, but since you've been stuck there for two days, I recommend starting a new character on a newer server

seasons have a set number of days and you're now behind

It'll mean redoing the starter area, but you don't lose anything unless you spent a lot of real money

Thanks for your patience.

Please click on the mini map and check if there is a Teleport Point under Unseen Grove. If so, please teleport there and continue the main quest.

Hope my answer will be helpful to you. If you still have questions, please feel free to contact me.
