Whether one or a few tribes of proto-Garleans were also settled in Corvus going back to the time of the Allagans, we do not yet know, but the Allag royal blood was only being passed down within a family of Miqo'te so they won't have anything to do with it.
Yet Ramza if he is of Goug was a WoL that would imply that he'd have to be able to use magic. In the fight against Ultima they create a magical barrier. Anyway if the Allagans were anything like the Machi they would have most likely taken similar steps to continue on some how. That and we also get told that one of the prominent families that came from Corvos is the house of Darnus.
