trial of sekhemas key deleted - bug or intended?

If I fail by dying or loosing my honor the trial resets and I can choose to start over by talking to the Djin.

One time I decided to not kill the boss because I didn't have any keys and I wanted to try again and see if I could get some keys.

I could have just died and started over but instead I thought I would try the "loose all progress" button. It warned me that I would loose all progress but it didnt warn me that my keystone would be deleted and I would have to find a new one if I wanted to try again.

Further more, all of my relics were now trapped in the alter. The relic locker is shared across account, so now I dont have my relics for my warrior until I find a key on my witch. As far as I can tell there is no way to remove the relics without an active key.
