This implies that they came from a Cavern Bunker yet if this were the case they could not have known the geography of the land.

What is the radiation symbol all about?

First of all, the symbol is actually the symbol of a fallout shelter. The radiation symbol is the icon of an entirely different faction on the continent of Tertius. To answer the question, the fallout shelter symbol was adopted as the banner of the knighthood by John Titus Peck when he founded the Tertius Knights. He was one of the last humans to understand what the symbol meant and why it should represent the knighthood. This is a subject that Jason will eventually reveal in a story.
