Stuck in Oribos

I am stuck in Oribos.
I took a mage portal on my level 50 alt and set my hearth at the inn keeper there, as I did not want to have to go through the tedious Maw intro. Now as it turns out, there is no portal out of Oribos if you have not done the intro quests, and I possess no other method of teleportation on this character.

If the game itself has lore stating that “mortals” (indicating more than just the player character) are joining covenants, without having to withstand the tedious rigmarole of the Shadowlands maw intro. Why does my alt have to?

In a longwinded way I am saying that this is a bug. I either should not be able to teleport to Oribos prior to the intro, or the portals to the capitals should be at all phases of Oribos.
I shouldn’t have to use the character stuck option, because no one had the thought that people might try to use a mage portal spell to go somewhere.
