Starting from type IIB string theory on an ADE singularity, the N = (2,0) little string arises when one takes the string coupling gs to 0. We compactify the little string on the cylinder with punctures, which we fully characterize, for any simple Lie algebra g. Geometrically, these punctures are codimension two defects that are D5 branes wrapping 2-cycles of the singularity. Equivalently, the defects are specified by a certain set of weights of Lg, the Langlands dual of g. As a first application of our formalism, we show that at low energies, the defects have a description as a g-type quiver gauge theory. We compute its partition function, and prove that it is equal to a conformal block of g-type q-deformed Toda theory on the cylinder, in the Coulomb gas formalism. After taking the string scale limit m s → infinity, the little string becomes a (2,0) superconformal field theory (SCFT). As a second application, we study how this limit affects the codimension two defects of the SCFT: we show that the Coulomb branch of a given defect flows to a nilpotent orbit of g, and that all nilpotent orbits of g arise in this way. We give a physical realization of the Bala--Carter labels that classify nilpotent orbits of simple Lie algebras, and we interpret our results in the context of g-type Toda. Finally, after compactifying our setup on a torus T2, we make contact with the description of surface defects of 4d N = 4 Super Yang-Mills theory due to Gukov and Witten (2006).
