This is really good! And mostly in keeping with lore. ^^ I'll add a couple small details that may help you out, but overall your story is close enough within lore that you really shouldn't have to make any changes.


Show Content
Brief Ala Mhigan HistoryTheodric was the King of Ala Mhigo long before he went crazy and killed the Monks. The quest text from the Monk Storyline suggests that Theodric grew jealous of the popularity of the Fists of Rhalgr and became paranoid that they were plotting to overthrow him. (Very Star Wars III) So he began imprisoning Monks and torturing them until they "confessed" that the Monks were in-fact trying to overthrow him. He decreed that the worship of Rhalgr was heresy and that he was the one true King, by divine will of Nymeia. This is when he gathered all of his mighty Lancer legions and surrounded the Temple of the Fists of Rhalgr. He burned the surrounding homes and villages and then slaughtered all within the temple, burning it to the ground too. 

This caused great civil unrest within the city-state. Many stood up to oppose Theodric, but he imprisoned, tortured, or killed any that were caught doing so. Monks and worshipers of Rhalgr were hunted down for the next five years. Using this civil unrest, the Garleans marched into Ala Mhigo and killed Theodric. It was a very short battle due to the Garleans being hailed as saviors. 

There were those who resisted though. The Resistance rose up and attempted to defend Ala Mhigo but failed miserably and the Garleans slayed any who fought against them and chased the Ala Mhigan refugees south into Eorzea. 


As for the Calamity, those who were not sent into the time rift, have a very hazy memory of those who did. They did not forget that they existed, but they can't remember names or faces or any way to identify them. All the people of Eorzea know was that many brave souls went to the Battle of Cartaneau and that they laid down their lives for Eorzea. But they cannot remember who they were. 

As for the inbetween, we don't know a lot. We know that the nation of Ul'dah sent aid to Gridania and Limsa to help restore their cities. We know that each of the nations really had to rebuild and help their outlying territories recover from the Calamity. As evidenced by ARR, we've seen a huge increase in how far the Garleans have pushed into Eorzea. They have at least one stronghold in every region now. So it's safe to assume that the Garleans resumed their push into Eorzea. It could also be that the Garleans were already in the process of building those before mentioned strongholds during 1.23 when the Garleans were making active invasions in each region.
