Nay. Since there is no entity in the game called "The Holy Grail", the
only thing it can refer to is the drinking vessel used at the last supper.
Because the cup of the carpenter isn't a part of the game, it doesn't have
a "location" in the sense that we've been using the term. Thus, I feel
this rule is ambiguous and inappropriate. If you had instead said "...the
location of any token whose name is 'The Holy Grail'...", that'd be
different.
