He would be 5 when the empire took over Ala Mhigo and with his parents no longer in the picture(most likely executed as heretics), would have been picked up by a soldier of the empire and brought into Garlemald (thus ending any real connection to Ala Mhigo)
Well, therein lies the problem. As Yssen stated, and this is true, nearly all of the Empire's soldiers are brainwashed conscripts. It mentions that somewhere...in the game I think? I can't remember exactly where, but it is a fact, so the likelihood of your character living in a city state that is under invasion of the Empire, being picked up by a Garlean soldier and living is extremely slim to none.
One of my previous incarnations of a character was a member of the Garlean empire who had overcome her brainwashing with the aide of someone, but it doesn't really fit and I considered it lore breaking, so I dropped that character. (I've had a few identify crisis issues in my 3 years on these forums, and I'm still having one atm).
I'm not saying it's not feasible to spend time or reside in Garlemald after being picked up by a soldier, but it's highly unlikely. You're more likely to make drinking buddies with Odin and play D&D with Ifrit while having tea with Garuda. Ok, ignore that part. ;p
