Medusa, indeed. What a fatefully perfect typo. Given the fact that this civilization has trampled upon and ignored Nature in its quest for money and material goods, Medusa is the perfect agent of its comeuppance. More is yet to come on that account...

Much more. Medusa will wake up the sleeping and bring down the mighty in high places. "She destroys in order to recreate balance."

No weapon of mass destruction will suffice to halt or contain her.
