Question; was the person who "arrested" your character donned up in full Flames attire? If I'm seeing that screenshot right, it's a black mage?Â
My Flames LS/FC copy the NPC uniform (from the overcoats to the open shirts out in the field)...we do this to claim validity, but not authority. If they were donned up as a black mage, then your character had every power to be like "Who are you? You're not in a Flame uniform". At best, it would be a member of the Free Brigade (which the game assumes all Immortal Flames player characters are in by default), and the adventurer units in the Grand Companies probably have lesser authority than the main fighting units.
Otherwise, it looks like a part-time employment of GC membership just when it is convenient. Among my group, we roleplay membership as a full-time thing, not something to deploy when we feel like it.
