They probably tripped and fell when trying to learn how to walk outside of the water the first few times. Or dropped an object. Or saw rain. You don’t last long on the surface without getting acquainted with gravity.
Yeah, they can’t have spent their entire lives under water or they literally would not have been able to walk.

You can’t write fantasy without at some point hitting ‘that wouldn’t actually work’… and ignoring it.

If you are completely immersed in water and you lose your footing, you don’t fall. You float down.
Rocks fall.
