Overview
A prismarine fortress on the deep ocean floor, guarded by three elder guardians that inflict Mining Fatigue III across a fifty-block radius so you cannot simply mine in. The central chamber contains eight blocks of gold behind a dark prismarine shell, and one or two of the wings contain sponge rooms, the only renewable source of sponge for draining water. There are no chests anywhere in the structure: everything of value is either a block you mine or a mob drop.
