While I do not own these extra-special collectibles (I am working on it), I have stumbled upon something I find interesting, and not sur eif it has really been discussed:

Palace of the Vampire Queen was released first.

Dwarven Glory was next.

But, and perhaps this is just "duh, serleran, shut up... we know!" they appear to have been intended to be reversed.

   
Background for Dwarven Glory wrote:
At one time the community of Dwarven Glory was a thriving and wealthy community. So wealthy, in fact, that the proud and strengthening heritage of Dwarf history was forgotten and the community was easy prey for Mortoc and his 10 Orc Tribes. But, although the Orcs conquered, they could not completely destroy Dwarven Glory, and there were parts of the caverns they did not even penetrate.

Now the caverns echo in the misty gloom, offering refuge to the forgotten and promise to the adventurer.


   
Background for Palace of the Vampire Queen wrote:
For three centuries the peasants of the Dwarvish island of Baylor have feared the raids of the Vampire Queen and her minions. Sweeping down at night from the palace in the shrowded peaks of the island, they range ever farther in their search for blood. And not only blood - the children of dwarf peasants often disappear if they are so unfortunate as to be out at night. Even the cities are no longer safe. The most recent victim was the Princess of Baylor, daughter of King Arman, who was taken in a midnight raid on the capitol city of Ar Toe within past weeks. King Arman has offered fabulous riches and land holdings with titles to the person or persons who can brave the stronghold of the Vampire Queen and return his daughter to him alive and well. But, in truth, he holds little hope. For even King Arman, Ruler of Baylor, Defeater of the Ten Orc Tribes, is afraid in his heart to face the Vampire Queen.


You see, PotVQ seems to take place after the defeat of the Ten Orc Tribes while DG occurs with them having brought defeat to their enemies. Is there any more information on the Islands of Baylor in any other Wee Warriors material?

And, sorry if this is redundant and boring... it was new to me.
