...how can I reliably obtain water breathing (and no, hoping for Amulet of Fish random drop is not reliable...) so that I won't suffocate and is actually able to explore the play anyway?

And I think there's a lore mentioning that there's a key with it...

I cheated, at least I think I did lol.

If you stand on stairs, you are considered being above water. Never found real waterbreathing, so I would get full breath, run a few steps in one direction then phase door back. Once you find the stairs down, the next floor has no water in it. But there are a LOT of enemies that confuse and knockback.

One of the notes in the forest mentioned something about a mage in derth that knew how to breathe water...I guess I should go there.

Made it down there with a skelly (auto water breathing heh) but had to beat a hasty retreat for the moment. Was about level 12 or 13 at the time.

I have added air bubbles around the water level now.
The bubbles will provide air, but they will deplete fast, keeps you on the move :)

So, by next beta? Damn...

The air ran out too fast, my Sun Paladin just can't walk that many steps away from the stair...

Update: Lucky enough to find the stair...it's conquering time!

Update 2: YAY! Got the fortress now! The auto-arrange is cool, but, the only thing I'm confused is why the quest is not considered as complete...
