Canada 97 TJ Clutch Issues

I was driving home from work yesterday, i pushed in the clutch to shift from 1st to 2nd gear, and i hear a pop or snap (more felt than heard), and all of a sudden my clutch pedal goes limp.

I managed to drive it home in first gear very slowly, so when i began to park in my parking stall, i put it in neutral put on the brake and shut the jeep off.

I did some inspection but i can't see any fluid leaks under the dash, in the engine compartment or at the secondary slave. The fluid level inside the resevoir seems low, but i'm not sure if it was that way before or after this all happend.

Also... When i checked under the dash for leaks, i noticed that the clutch pedal is now stiff and won't budge (in the top position)

Does anyone know what it could be?
Any help would be appreciated!
