The class guilds are not the only methods in Eorzea to obtain skills, they are rather the most open legal methods. There are for example plenty of Cnj type mobs running around in the beast tribes(similar with Thm), while one could argue "game mechanics" the blm quests out and out have you join up with a cabal of would be black mages who are members of the beast tribes.
Now with that being the case a non Gridania trained CNJ who illegally gains access to white magic could be an interesting concept. I wouldn't suggest it for everyone but it seems lore possible. Â The character probably should keep on the downlow when in the shroud though.
If one wanted to have a more legal type I'm more than willing to accept that the WHM quest line was the first of a new breed necissary for the dawn of a new Astral era. It brings it closer in like to SMN, SCH, BRD, WR etc.
Dragoon of course.. has a much more interesting potential Lore sidestreet. Ishgard could only field one or two Azure Dragoons... but Dravinia could easily field those who call upon the dragon's power without it being stolen.
