All I can think for Paladin and Monk are that the Sacrarium, determining it needs some martial might, goes to the Pugilist and Gladiator guilds and offers to train their mightiest fighters in more spiritual ways. Both guilds seem like the types of guilds who would be willing to put up with some extra rules if it meant more power.

Marauders -> Warrior would simply be Limsa Lominsa trying to get a real, unified, solid army out of its ragtag pirate crews.

Lancer -> Dragoon would simply be the Dragoons of Ishgard coming down and teaching Gridania some ancient, previously-guarded secrets to fight against the Empire.

Archer -> Bard would... well be another exchange program, probably in Limsa. They seem like the kind of city who likes singing, considering their taverns (all 40 of them) are packed with drunk pirates looking for entertainment.
