Nakkiga

Location from Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn by Tad Williams

Mask of Tears — the Norn city carved inside a mountain, its gates never breached, its queen ten thousand years old, and its hatred of the mortal world as cold and patient as the stone it's built from.

Also known as: Nakkiga, Stormspike, Ur-Nakkiga, Mask of Tears
