This is correct. All the job spells you get as a Scholar, with perhaps exclusion of the last one, come from your faerie. By making a pact with the faeries it allowed the Scholars of Nym to act as a sort of proxy for the faerie's power which granted them healing and support magic.
Each faerie is a unique individual with their own personality, memories, and name so if you were to get a faerie of your own via attunement with a Nymian soul crystal, she would most certainly have memory loss due to her 15,000 year dormancy just like Eos does in the Scholar job line and would need time and practice to restore her full abilities.
Just to reiterate, without your faerie a Scholar has NONE of the job spells since the are "borrowed" from the faerie. Job quest spoiler below.
I'm bad, and that's good. I will never be good, and that's not bad. There's no one I'd rather be than me.
