I didn't know that the knowledge of White Magic was actually so... unknown. It makes sense given the circumstances, though. If it wasn't, I would assume folks would be seeking to try and revive it much sooner - or find the alternatives that the lore folks have been hinting at but have yet to show?
I was actually initially worried when I read through this that Gogon's knowledge and subsequent hunting for an Amdaporian Soul Crystal would suddenly be lore-breaking. However, then I realized that he's already spent plenty of time studying Nymian history and tactics and whatnot - which would include conflicts with the Mcachi and Amdapori. In fact, this better explains why he was actually able to find one in one of their ruins - people aren't actively out and looking for them.
So "finding an Amdapori Soul Crystal" is still a valid thing... it's just that most folks - unless they're well-read on the War of the Magi - will have no idea what it is and what is contained within.
