What people are quick to not pay attention to is the lore of Ala Mihgo centres mainly around the Fist of Rhalgr - the order of Monks that were wiped out by the last King of Ala Mihgo (Theodoric) before the Garleans took it over. I'd say that she's likely a surviving member of the Order, if not a member of the royal family, anyway.
