The Atlesian army is there to help them battle the WF If I had to guess Atlas's relationship with Mistral is similar to that of Europe and Africa... they have actively buffered and supported with technology a minority(the high class), enabling a social climate similar to IRL African countries which have struggled with years of conflict and genocide(I'm not saying currently as I haven't kept up with that regions current politics, but rather how they were when the British empire floundered)

And then there's what I realized earlier: With cross-Kingdom communication broken and the fact that the other Kingdoms think Atlas attacked Vale, it wouldn't be surprising if Mistral mistook the arrival of Atlas forces as Atlas preparing to do to Mistral what they supposedly did to Vale.
