Let me try. Sadly, Eorzea's paladins and Azeroth's aren't really the same thing, so translating them might not be perfect. Also, I have no idea how old your character is supposed to be, so you might have to tweak things to fit chronology.
Changes are in bolds.

He also had a little sister. He did not often see his father much but when he did he would tell grand stories of what it is to be a sultansworn and would personally train him. He was young when the Amalj'aa raided their hometown in Thalanan, taking the lives of George's little sister and mother. His father was severely wounded, but managed to save his son and take him into safety before bleeding out. George was orphaned and his town was gone. Everything gone.

After this event George abandoned Ul'dah and the idea of ever becoming a sultansworn. He believed the Sultanatehad betrayed him and wanted nothing more to do with them. In order to start a new life he migrated west to Limsa Lominsa where he enlisted in the Maelstorm. The training he received there complemented the sword techniques his father had taught him.
He was almost sent to fight the Garlean Empire when the war started, but he became deathly ill and was forced to resign from the military. He eventually went to Aleport where he spent a few years being a hired guard. He held strong values of Chivalry and politeness he recieved from being a paladin's son. But he also grew a great hatred for the beastmen. From there he adopted fishing to pass the time and lived his days peacefully as guard in Aleport.

Biggest change you'll notice is that paladins/sultansworn in this game don't have a religious creed: they are essentially the Sultana's praetorian guard and, while they still have the whole paladin stick of defending the innocent and being overall a good guy, they don't have a "Light" analogue. So your character's disgust will be more towards Ul'dah's high society and politics rather than a god-like being.
I guess he could be angry at the Mother Crystal, Hydaelyn, but that wouldn't be particularly related to the Paladin's oath, as far as I can tell.
