The Tower of Naglash

by Courtney C. R. Lambert

What is the Tower of Naglash?

  The Tower of Naglash is a story about a world inhabited by winged beings called feyns and their struggle against an evil tyrant as he tries to take over their world. A prophesy states that a descendant of Chlant will free their world by destroying him; however, the last descendents were slain. Is someone else going to rise up and free them? Or is their planet doomed to fall?

What is its history?

  The Tower of Naglash was started in 2012 when the author was on the cusp of starting highschool and was completed in 2016 before graduation. The book has a total of 433 pages and 2,864,818 words. Currently, the book is in the slow process of being edited. As of writing this, there is no foreseen date when this will be finished due to many events occurring in the author's life. Until 2022, the manuscripts were metaphorically sitting on a lonely shelf collecting dust, remembered only wistfully. However, the author has since been working on editing and improving the manuscript, with fresher eyes and perspective after the hiatus.

The Plan:

  The author is currently doing an exchange with a writing friend where each read the other's manuscript and provide feedback on it. This has caused the author to delay publication in ebook and physcial book format. However, the desire to put her book out there was too great, and she is releasing her story on Royal Road in the meantime. You can read the most recent version of her manuscript as of November 2025 on their website or on her personal website Nova Albion.

Blurb for Fate's Demand: Book One in The Tower of Naglash trilogy:

Following the demise of Lársh in the Great War, the majority of feyns have lived undisturbed. The lineage of Varendile Ch'lant who defeated Lársh has been extinguished through mysterious and awful deaths, having been cursed. Now there is no one left who can claim to be a descendant of Ch'lant.

Hundreds of years later, rumors have risen that Lársh has returned and has begun to make his way north, spreading his guile and corruption in his wake. Unease has been increasing as some believe the tales, and others laugh it off. With the House of Ch'lant gone, who will defeat Lársh? Who will save Feyndome from the grasp of a cruel immortal tyrant?

Chárlotte, a feny living in the northern lands, has found herself suddenly swept up into the conflict that is brewing. While she has no desire to be involved, she has found she does not have much of a choice in light of the demands and expectations of her world.

Will she accept the fate being forced upon her, or will she refuse? Will she be able to learn all the lessons and endure all the horrors that await her on the journey? Only time will tell.
