I had my info mainly from Dwarves Deeps and I do recognise three dwarven kingdoms in this area. Oghran (Cormyr, Desertmouth mts), Sarphil (Dragonspine, Galenas) and Roldilar (Earthfast, Earthspur, Vast).
For me Sabreen was a Roldilar city that was later razed by Orcs and even later settled by humans as Raven's Bluff and Sabreenar is a old dwarven fortress near Sabreen without any major occupation in 1370+ DR.



This is correct and consistent with the sources. Felimar existed a thousand plus years before the founding of Roldilar. My take was that Earthfast was too huge a place to have been built in the scant time Roldilar was around, especially given that they were building Sarbreen at the same time.

Of course, my timeline isn't "canon" so feel free to do what you like.

I really didn't thought much about why haven't those dwarves made name for themselves earlier. It just works for me that it was Roldilar even before they settled surface Vast and it broke down when they were defeated. From the info on Earthfast city it seems to me they have never been more than a city (no kingdom, ...).

Btw I have been inspired by Phasai's books in that Glimmering swords were not just "bane" swords but that they were actualy poisonous to orcs. It is much more fun and unique take on specialised weapon.
