Could have been either earlier, or a different group of people all together that had no relation to Amdapor or the Black Mages. We just know that it was built prior by some one, not by who. Unless I misheard the panel. Think he was saying that the remnants of the civilization created Belah'dia and subsequently took control of Qarn. That alone seemed to imply it wasn't the black mages who originally made Qarn in 5AE.
Interesting stuff either way.
Yeah, entirely possible that Qarn pre-dates even the 5th Astral Era and the anonymous Black Mage nation simply built Belah'dia up around Qarn cuz it was old and perty and probably had some dark secrets. We don't know. Although, if Qarn was 4AE, that'd be really frikkin old temple. 4000 years or so.
In either case, still highly unlikely you'd find a White Mage soulstone there of all places. Amdapor was the nation of White Mages. You'd be much more likely finding a soulstone in Amdapor or at the bottom of the Rootslake. Based on Fernehalwes' answer stating there were certain other parties in the Shroud (I sense Lambs of Dalamud return!) using nefarious methods to resurrect Succor, I'm sure more lore on the subject will come to light in 3.0.
Thanks for that info. So looks like I need to make some corrections to my chars history so it fits lore lol
edit: looking over my notes, turns out I actually had left how she got the soul stone open ended. So rather than Qarn, gonna say she found it at the bottom of rootslake.
