Crisis explanation to train magery is true and quick enough (maybe 7 hours?).
However, if you can dedicate a suit to skills, then you can equip some things to give you more magery and meditation. A book with +skill magery and meditation is possible. Jewelry set with 15 of magery and meditation can be crafted simple enough (needs crystalline blackrock from mining to allow imbuing the skills). Even looting or buying +20 skill jewelry is possible.
If your character is a mage then the spell woven britches grant 10 meditation.
So it would be possible to gain magery (65 = 100% recall success) and meditation (could be GM) with:
ring +15 magery, +15 meditation
bracelet +15 magery, +15 meditation
spell woven britches + 10 meditation
spellbook with +12 magery and +12 meditation (this is the max it will spawn with 9-12)
47 magery, 57 meditation in skill bonus
18 magery as real skill + 43 meditation as real skill (61 skill points)
If you are are at your cap of 720, then you may find a way to get the other skill points without as much impact to your play style other than swapping a suit. You could even get back a different 60 points from a different ring and bracelet to give you enough skill to restore the lowered skill(s). It would take 2 or 3 skills to get more points.
So in my estimation almost anything is possible with a little creative accounting.
