I discovered an error regarding Home Points. If you decide to "Allow Node to Dissipate" upon completion of a leve, your home point will be set to the levequest location.
If this is working as intended, I would reconsider and change this mistake.
Thanks!

Detailed steps on how the issue occurred.
*Please try to include the following details.
•I left Gridania with my home point in Gridania. I arrived to Nine Ivies and activated the levequest, "All Nine Ivies is Stage." I had just finished participating in the leve quest above when I decided to "Allow the node to dissipate." Even though I did not change my Home Point, my home point after the leve had become Camp Nine Ivies. I know that selecting "Allow the Node to Dissipate" was the cause, because I had done a levequest prior, and by selecting any option by "Allow the node to dissipate" did not cause my Home Point to change.
I was able to replicate this at Camp Humblehearth and the leve "Reforesting Nine Ivies", not much later.
Oddly enough, after completing some other leves, my home point did in fact reset to Gridania. I do not know when this occured, but after clearing leves at The Mun-Tuy Cellars, my home point was Gridania again without going back.
