Tutorial area (and your character before leaving it) is instanced in a way that nothing is saved if session is terminated (logging out or closing the client in anyway, including going to sleep.) Before you spawn into the game world proper.
In Haven this is mostly a non-issue, the worst case scenario is that you need to complete the minute-long process from scratch again.
In Salem this can pose more of a problem or at least an annoyance, as the instanced creation/tutorial area is much longer. I personally did maybe half of it and logged out thinking I could continue later the first time I was creating a character.
