In SLASH'EM, the Sunless Sea is accessed by a stairway down located between levels 28 and 31. Monster generation in the Sunless Sea is biased toward chaotic monsters. On entering the level, you will get the message "You hear the roar of the sea. That can't be right...."

The ( on the island in the middle of the sea indicates a cache of treasure, composed of a chest, two random wands, two random amulets, two random rings, and three random gems; there are also four random objects located on the beach. There are five giant crabs on the beach. The marked monsters in the sea proper are all sharks; the sea also contains six other sharks and seven other random ;. The X mark indicates a burnt message reading "The lamp washed into the sea while I slept! Woe and damnation!" and a random item. As the engraving suggests, there is a magic lamp located somewhere on the level.

Strategy

If the magic lamp is underwater, it can be moved to another location (hopefully land) with a zap from a wand of teleportation, or snatched with a bullwhip while levitating. Flying does not work for the bullwhip: vampires need a levitation item. Swimming or magical breathing will also work. A carefully applied or zapped wand of cold can provide ice to dig the lamp out as well.

Another approach is to fill in the water using a scroll of earth and dig the lamp out with a pick-axe.
