Trial of time hardcore boss

Hello

I had a question about the trial of time on Hardcore .
I was at the last boss and there was just a pause to solve a puzzle.
When I ran out of time to solve it I was instantly stripped of all 10k+ honors and completely life and energy shiled .
And the character switched to standard league.
Is this normal I thought if the character loses all the honors he will fail the trial.

Thank you for the answer.
