This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Beegred moves up, smack talking the Medusa in a language she doesn't even understand, while trying to guide his allies' blows towards their target. Beegred, overloaded with multitasking, thrusts his short sword at the empty space between the Medusa's legs, tearing through her tattered robe.
The Medusa continues to focus on Narstin, speaking about his connection to the divine with utter contempt. However, her hair acts independently and rises lowers to the challenge of striking the verbose halfling...
Snake hair Attack: 14 Damage: 13
Short sword Attack: 20 Damage: 3
Short sword Attack: 17 Damage: 5
Both Beegred and Narstin deftly leap back, wary of letting this creature land a blow.
Rodolfo looks around the area for anything that would possibly help in the fight - possibly a reflecting surface or anything other interesting. The idea is to grab everything interesting, stuff it into a bag and run back out.
As Rodolfo scans the living quarters of the Medusa, he notices an abundance of tapestries, clothing and furniture, all rotted.
Rodolfo Investigation: 17
Rodolfo also notices a few dresses on racks that appear to still be in good condition. Anything that once was able to reflect light has been shattered or defaced. It appears the Medusa is well aware of her vulnerability.
(You can still move on this turn, and Bonus action if you have anything you can use it for)
Rodolfo rushes back out and shouts, "I will destroy all your dresses if you don't surrender right now! Lay face down and cover your snakes!" (bonus action can be used to Dash if his regular movement doesn't do all of it)
Rodolfo rushes out of the cave screaming at the Medusa in Common, Gnomish and Dwarvish, threatening her dresses. Unfortunately, the threats don't seem to register with the creature, who remains focused on Narstin.
(You can move as far out of the cave as you moved to get into the cave. Let me know where you want to end up.)

Edit: What the holy hades! Would have finally hit, but failed the CON save, bleh.
Edit2: (With prompting by the DM, used a personality trait to get another save roll, and the new CON save was an 18.) Beegred let's out a frightened scream when he though he was going to be petrified immediately.
