In the recovery options.
Correct no saved recovery keys.
Oh! I don't know of anyway that can be resurrected. If you encrypt a drive you must save it's key for just such a situation as yours

In Settings > Privacy and Security > Device encryption is on.
Would it be possible to bypass it by unchecking it?
