Ul'dah was actually one of Garlemald's biggest trading partners until the fall of Ala Mhigo. So unless your character was Ala Mhigan Resistance, you probably wouldn't have done very much fighting against the Garleans, especially if your character is Gridanian, until almost 5 years ago.
I actually feel like I know all that stuff after hearing you say it. Makes sense that they weren't advancing so deep into Eorzea at the beginning. Dunno why I forgot about that part.
I'm gonna just focus on trying to get my hands on some research about what was going on 3O years ago in Eorzea. Sounds like he's even too old to have dealt with much of the Garlean threat. If you have any timelines or resources laying around I'd appreciate any links! I'm also going to have to look up the details on white mage and see why people would have problems with someone even knowing that job ICly. I thought if I had him traveling and meeting people from all over the world, it would be plausible he met white mages, and due to the dire circumstances (I figured war is a good reason for people to accept things that would normally be considered illegal or banned to help them) people got some very good use out of it while they were in these difficult situations. I'll have to see if I can place him at any events during his prime where it would make sense for him to run into them. I'll definitely have to change things around if I can't find events that makes sense for his reasonings.
