Lost key to my Brave Wallet

I briefly had a Brave Wallet and then when they partnered with Gemini, I transferred all BAT to Gemini. I know the Brave Wallet is empty. The recovery phrase for the original wallet is long gone. Now that the transfer of BAT to Gemini is being disconnected, I need to re-establish a Brave Wallet. Is there another way to recover an existing wallet (I suspect not) or is there a way to open a NEW wallet. I can’t seem to find an option other than “recover”.

Hello! You’ll need the recovery phrase to restore the previous wallet.

If you don’t have it, you can reset the wallet and start fresh. https://support.brave.app/hc/en-us/articles/16122730654477-Resetting-Brave-Wallet
