Hiring two or three outsiders seems quite plausible, especially if the state wants to maximize the amount of competent people killing dragons.I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you didn't read Sounsy's follow-up post on what Gatewardens were in 1.0.

This has been said on multiple pages of this thread.
I certainly don't need to be told there are significant obstacles to overcome; with all due respect, given my history as the player of this character, I'm confident I am more keenly aware of them (and their workarounds) than almost anyone else on this forum. That is why I do my best to educate the few prospective miqo'te dragoons who pop into this forum or the Ishgard RP LS; to both help educate them on their decision and to step in before they dip a toe into these exact shark-filled waters.
