I am in the Severed Hand - and have freed the slaves, did the ritual, cleansed the water, but now what? I have read that Rikki will tell me to what to do but Rikki has been dead a long time. Is the game over for me?

I have tried going to the garden on top of the Officer's tower but the little Gnome dude just keeps cleaning up. where do I find Pudol???

Please help!

You are probably thinking of the wrong person. Rikki is the drow rogue standing somewhere on Severed Hand L4. If you kill her, the game automatically ends.
