Apparently there he made a pact with Hydaelyn to become a sort of guardian for Etheyris, details are muddy but basically she needed help fighting the ascians.
The pact as I understand it was for Midgard to stand guard in Mor Dhona in exchange for his children to do as they wish.

The Allagans marched on Bahamut and Tiamats brood in Meracydia, and as far as we know Hydaelyn didn’t speak any of them. Things progressed as they did naturally.

All of this in service to Hydaelyn, who so graciously allowed them refuge in Etheyris.
Once again there’s nothing to indicate that Hydaelyn compelled them to do so or that the dragons are in service to Her.

-Hydaelyn knew the ascians were not the real enemy, yet had the dragons pit against them and sacrifice countless of their children to them
-Hydaelyn knew the dragons were capable of interstellar travel, as much as they were probably not immune to the song of the end, she could at least fashion some protection, let's call it the blessing of light, or echo, that protected them against turning into monstrosities
-Whatever the Omicrons did to the dragons, it would be at least comparable to what the Allagan Empire and the Heavens' Ward did to them, and while the Omicrons were at least evil and did it for a reason, the ascians who machinated all these atrocities against the dragons weren't even the real enemy
1. The Dragons knew as much as the rest of mankind, so it would be odd to hold them to account for that. More to the point, we don’t have evidence beyond the initial deal that Hydaelyn made the dragons do anything. And hell, the fact that Hydaelyn gave Ysayle a crystal of light should be factored in too. She was the one arguing for the dragons and Ishgardians to establish peace, a role she might not have been able to take on without Hydaelyns power.

2. The Dragons’ natural aetheric density gave them protection. And we shouldn’t presume the blessing would help against Dynamis.

3. The Ascians threatened to free Zodiark and complete the Rejoining, spelling doom for Hydaelyns plan and killing all those on the reflections. That’s enough to justify action. And yet even still the Allagan/Ishgard conflicts were not compelled by Her as far as we know.

Definitely agree.
