Right, sure, absolutely. I'm not saying Limsa is the outright WRONG choice, I was just making a case for Thanalan as well.

I know it's not exactly what the OP wanted to hear, but I really think that absent a definitive yes or no from the devs--which doesn't really seem like their style--there's no one right answer. Canonically, we know of three places where Au Ra have ended up in Eorzea: Thanalan, Coerthas, and the Black Shroud. Especially with the Xaela, who are a very diverse group given to wandering, you could make an argument for putting a Xaela WoL pretty much anywhere.
Also, the intro only says that the WoL is new to Eorzea; not that wherever the player starts the game is the WoL's first stop. I can easily see a Doman refugee landing in Horizon and deciding to go to Gridania to hone their archery skills.
