The Warrior questline for 50-60 involves unlocking these powers by going out and doing various things or getting into battles with the sideplot being how to tame the Inner Beast.
I'm pretty sure since these abilities were completely lost to time and even though you read about them (which is also part of the questline) you couldn't just simply learn to use them. It pretty much is flatly stating that you need to make the soulstone "remember" through your own experience.
The White Mage quest does the same, but offers no real explanation for what you're learning other than, "You're using Succor and so you're figuring things out you don't already know." Â I think, however, it's important to differentiate from gameplay and lore, especially when little to no information is offered as to how you are learning things. Â Additionally, there is nothing to say that you could not have learned those techniques from someone who already knows them. Â There is no requirement, at least in the WHM questline, of this being the only way to discover those things.
