Actually in 1.0, the Player Character was the only Echo user in all of the Path of the Twelve who had the ability to understand all languages. So it's more likely a rare trait. The only two commonplace traits are the ability to go inside other people's minds and resist tempering. That we've seen so far.

The War of the Magi between Black Mages and White Mages was actually fought during the 5th Astral Era. While the Temple of Qarn supposedly existed in the 5th Astral Era, it was a temple for wielders of Black Magic, not White. The temple was later used as a burial tomb for Belah'dia's royals afterwards. Their treasures were entombed with them. So highly unlikely that there are White Mage soulstones in Qarn. Amdapor, yes, Qarn, no.
