We don't actually know that, though. Since FFXIV in general leans more towards "all myths are false," the age when they served "the gods" and the disaster that drove them to the Twelveswood actually has two possible in-lore matches. We're currently meant to associate this with the Age of the Gods and the Calamity of Fire, as no doubt the Moogles themselves have concluded from comparing their myths with those of humans, but there's an equally possible and much more recent match in their servitude in Dravania and Nidhogg's destructive rampage after Ratatoskr's death. If the Allagan remnants in the Aery are any indicator, Nidhogg is the other dragon that escaped Azys Lla, and the Moogles could have come with him to Dravania after pledging their service.
