Shade (A text adventure) contains spoilers to those who know the game.

I'm playing an old text adventure called Shade, and I'm absolutley stumped. Does anyone know where I can find a walkthrough, or failing that..
SPOILERS
I think I may have finished the game, having reached the bit where I'm actually in the desert, most of my possessions have dissolved into dust, and I've come across a tiny figure who walks around a bit then, when ?I tried to pick him up, he was buried in the sand, and Ican only assume he's dead. Now every time I do something the game says "All there is to do is wait". I've tried waiting but nothing, even after 15 or so repetions of waiting. There must be someone out there in Ironworksland who has some experience of this game and can tell me what in gods name to do next before my brain starts dribble from ears.
