Exactly.

So with this, i wonder how we're able to cast the "spells" for said teleports if we dont need runes and humans dont have "wells of energy"?

Given the runic (by the irl definition) markings on the lodestones, I'd say the lodestones themselves provide the necessary magic power (either having been imbued with it during their construction like how we can create temporary gate stones in Daemonheim, or by tapping into the plane's flow of anima to draw the necessary power). That well of energy is then borrowed by humans through the ritual seen in the basic teleport animation.

This would explain why teleporting this way takes so much longer than with runes (humans have to use their minimal innate magical ability to slowly force a connection to the power stored by the lodestones that then fuels the teleport) unless a supplementary source of magical power (vis wax or the boon granted by completing the hard wilderness tasks) is used to aid establishing that connection.

It might also explain why we have to touch the Lodestones before we can use them. Presumably most Lodestones aren't inactive before we touch them (with the possible exception of Anachronia's, which is why we need to restore it with Base Camp resources) -- I doubt some obviously magical pedestals sitting in plain sight outside of most major towns and cities on the continent were completely ignored by the locals until we touched them) -- rather, perhaps we needed to attune ourselves to their specific magical energies, or else trying to teleport to them would have had hilariously disastrous results, like that old random event where we could become lost in the Abyss when teleporting.
