The '''Underwater city''' is an ancient city, situated on the bottom of one of [[Gielinor|Gielinor's]] many [[ocean]]s. It was mentioned by [[Guthix]] in Issue 24 of the [[God letters]]. The city was submerged at an unknown date and eventually forgotten. Some consider it to be no more than a myth. However, Guthix also mentions that its inhabitants are making efforts to re-establish their contact with the rest of the world{{CiteGodLetter |url=http://services.runescape.com/m=rswiki/en/God_Letters_Issue_24 |issue=24 |letter=letter 2 |title=Guthix Ponders |date=17:52, February 6, 2010 (UTC) }}.

Many players thought that this area was the place that could be seen from [[Commander Zilyana]]'s chamber in the [[God Wars Dungeon]]. However, Jagex later confirmed that this was an abandoned area that was originally intended for an underwater passage to [[Zamorak's Fortress]] which was replaced by the current swim across the river due to time constraints.{{CiteForum |author=Mod Hohbien |url=http://www.webcitation.org/5t5VzSPhY |title=RS Content Q&A - pt 2 |forum=News & Announcements |postdate=19 February 2010 |date=19:41, September 28, 2010 (UTC) }}

A quote from Guthix in the God Letters:

"If thou art asking of the city beneath the waves, it hath been submerged for many centuries, and most commonfolk consider it naught but a myth.
I tell thee true, however, that such a place doth indeed exist, and even as I write this there are those working to re-establish access between this place and the outside world that hath all but forgotten it over these past centuries."

In a Live stream session in November 2012 it was hinted that the [[Pirate quest series]] and the character of [[Rabid Jack]] are going to be involved with the underwater city in one way or another.
