The pillar at Blanjong in Sanur, dated 4 February 914 (en.wikipedia, History of Bali, on one 1959 source) in Sanskrit and Old Balinese, names Sri Kesari Warmadewa and is the earliest dated edict of Bali's own kings.
It is the sign that Bali has issued its own edicts since 914 and is not Kediri's. The campaign board has no place for it; we add it because the assignment names it.
