1) The priests will keep coming. Killing Kreug at the top of stairs alerted them and they're continuous thereafter. Use range spells or close quickly hand-to-hand before they can poison you.
2) You can buy some cure poison potions in town, and use the spider nectar also (but not ALL of it - save at least one flask).
3) ID is a nice capability:
a) Obtain Ancient Lore trait. Acquired with role ascension to warlock or can be bought in wizards/priests guilds at level 3.
b) Train in Artifacts skill at the guild. Requires Ancient Lore trait and wizard/priest guild level 3.
