I don't believe it takes a Laurel precedent, Eldred.  Some years ago, (when
Mistress Jaelle was Triton, IIRC) a fair number of defunct group names and
devices were released.  I do not know for certain, but I would suspect that
this would be done after consultation between Their Majesties, Triton, and
probably Kingdom Seneschal.

This one should have been included.  "Lost Cavern of the Amber Mount" is not
a period or even perioid place-name.
